Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. First edition. This copy, the scarce Oxford Press imprint in green oxford cloth, and very good, unclipped orange jacket, barely sunned on the spine. A handsome collector's copy. Von Neumann was generally regarded as the foremost mathematician of his time[2] and said to be "the last representative of the great mathematicians". Von Neumann founded the field of continuous geometry.[75] It followed his path-breaking work on rings of operators. In mathematics, continuous geometry is a substitute of complex projective geometry. kHe was a pioneer of the application of operator theory to quantum mechanics in the development of functional analysis, and a key figure in the development of game theory and the concepts of cellular automata, the universal constructor and the digital computer.
