It All Adds Up: The Story of People and Mathematics

Condition: Pre-owned; Very Good (VG)

Author: Mickael Launay

Format: Paperback

From Aristotle to Ada Lovelace: a brief history of the mathematical ideas that have forever changed the world and the everyday people and pioneers behind them. The story of our best invention yet.

From our ability to calculate the passing of time to the algorithms that control computers and much else in our lives, numbers are everywhere. They are so indispensable that we forget how fundamental they are to our way of life.
