In questo affascinante volume, un noto matematico inglese usa umorismo e aneddoti per illuminare i concetti alla base della "nuova matematica": gruppi, insiemi, sottoinsiemi, topologia, algebra booleana e altri argomenti. Non è richiesta alcuna preparazione matematica avanzata per seguire discussioni stimolanti su argomenti quali funzioni, simmetria, assiomatica, conteggio, topologia, iperspazio, algebra lineare e altro ancora. 200 illustrazioni.
