Reviews
-
[E]rudite and well researched, and Leavitt writes about pure mathematics in a way that won't utterly baffle those of us who didn't get beyond pre-calculus in high school.
Christian Science Monitor
-
Ambitious, meaty, extensively researched...[a] richly layered, rueful portrait.Leavitt has tapped into marvelous material. Stimulating and refreshingly original.
San Francisco Chronicle
-
Excellent... ambitious. highly recommended.
Library Journal (Starred review)
-
Mathematics and its paradoxes provide a deep vein of metaphor that Leavitt uses to superb effect, demonstrating how the most meaningful relationships can defy both logic and imagination.
