nA mind-expanding and funny trip to the edge of mathematics nHow big is the universe? How many numbers are there? And is infinity + 1 is the same as 1 + infinity?
Such questions occur to young children and our greatest minds. And they are all the same question: What is infinity? In Beyond Infinity, Eugenia Cheng takes us on a staggering journey from elemental math to its loftiest abstractions.
Along the way, she considers how to use a chessboard to plan a worldwide dinner party, how to make a chicken-sandwich sandwich, and how to create infinite cookies from a finite ball of dough. Beyond Infinity shows how one little symbol holds the biggest idea of all. n Cheng] does a great service by showing us non-mathematician schlubs how real mathematical creativity works. -- Wall Street Journal How big is the universe?
