About This Book

¿Qué matemático elaboró un concepto crucial la noche antes de morir en un duelo? ¿Quién financió sus estudios de matemáticas y medicina a través del juego y del ajedrez? ¿Quién aprendió matemáticas del papel pintado de su pared?

Ian Stewart presenta las extraordinarias vidas y los sorprendentes descubrimientos de veinticinco de los mejores matemáticos de la historia —desde Arquímedes y Liu Hui hasta Mandelbrot y Thurston— que desempeñaron un importante papel en la creación de las matemáticas que usamos hoy en día. Esta sorprendente galería abarca a los genios menos conocidos, como Srinivasa Ramanujan y Emmy Noether, junto a las imponentes fi guras de Muhamad al-Juarismi (inventor del algoritmo), Fermat, Newton, Gauss, Lobachevski, Riemann (precursor de Einstein), Poincaré, Augusta Ada King, condesa de Lovelace (posiblemente la primera programadora de computadoras), Gödel y Turing. Cada uno de estos veinticinco grandes matemáticos es fascinante en sí mismo, y, tomados en conjunto, trazan la evolución de las matemáticas en el transcurso de dos milenios en una deslumbrante historia.
