Synopsis The first book by a teenage maths prodigy of Indian origin that is about to take the world by storm. Is anything truly random? Does infinity actually exist? Could we ever see into other dimensions? In this delightful journey of discovery, David Darling and extraordinary child prodigy Agnijo Banerjee draw connections between the cutting edge of modern maths and life as we understand it, venturing out on quests to consider the existence of free will and the fantastical future of quantum computers. Packed with puzzles and paradoxes, mind-bending concepts and surprising solutions, this is for anyone who is interested in maths and the way in which it’s connected to just about everything in the world. ‘A glorious trip through some of the wilder regions of the mathematical landscape . . . Highly recommended!' – Ian Stewart ‘A captivating ride . . . Read this book and soar!’ – Clifford A. Pickover
