Synopsis:
From Simon & Schuster, The Mystery of the Aleph is Amir D. Aczel's compelling narrative that blends a story of infinity with the tragic tale of a tormented and brilliant mathematician.
From the Pythagoreans, the Greek cult of mathematics, to the mystical Jewish numerology found in the Kabbalah, The Mystery Of The Aleph follows the search for an answer that may never truly be trusted.
About the Author: Amir D. Aczel, Ph.d, is the author of FERMAT'S LAST THEOREM, GOD'S EQUATION, EINSTEIN'S RELATIVITY AND THE EXPANDING UNIVERSE and several other books. His work has been translated into Turkish, Hebrew, French, German, Italian, Chinese and Spanish. An internationally known mathematician, he lives in Waltham Massachusetts.
