About this title

Synopsis

A classic of popular mathematical literature (since 1955) that combines the mathematics and the history of number theory with descriptions of the mystique that has, on occasion, surrounded the numbers even among great mathematicians. This edition brings up to date those portions pertaining to the applications of computers to the determination of the nature of large numbers. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
