Can you imagine something larger than the universe, but at the same time calmly placed in your head? What is it? Infinity!
Eugene Cheng sends us on an amazing mathematical journey to understand the most mysterious mathematical abstractions.
Why is it impossible to count some numbers?
Why infinity + 1 is not the same as 1+ infinity?
We will learn about the paradox of the "Grand Hotel", we will be able to feed 7 billion people with a chessboard, and we even get an infinite number of cookies from a small (final) piece of dough. All this will allow you to understand and love such a strange and mysterious abstract mathematics.
An incredible book about a huge and endless Universe fascinates and intrigues, showing how one small mathematical symbol contains a huge idea
