Product Details
- Even small children know there are infinitely many whole numbers - start counting and you'll never reach the end. But there are also infinitely many decimal numbers between zero and one. Are these two types of infinity the same? Are they larger or smaller than each other? Can we even talk about 'larger' and 'smaller' when we talk about infinity? In Beyond Infinity, international maths sensation Eugenia Cheng reveals the inner workings of infinity.What happens when a new guest arrives at your infinite hotel - but you already have an infinite number of guests? How does infinity give Zeno's tortoise the edge in a paradoxical foot-race with Achilles? And can we really make an infinite number of cookies from a finite amount of cookie dough?Wielding an armoury of inventive, intuitive metaphor, Cheng draws beginners and enthusiasts alike into the heart of this mysterious, powerful concept to reveal fundamental truths about mathematics, all the way from the infinitely large down to the infinitely small.

Higher Education Editorial Review
Beyond Infinity: An Expedition To The Outer Limits Of The Mathematical Universe delves into the fascinating realm of infinity, expertly woven by author Eugenia Cheng. The book spans 304 pages and was published by Profile Books, showcasing Cheng's ability to clarify complex mathematical concepts such as cardinal and ordinal infinity through relatable examples like the Hilbert Hotel and Queue. While some readers find the material challenging without a mathematical background, many appreciate the book's insightful take and elegant writing style that makes the subject approachable. Despite its dense themes, readers note the personal anecdotes can distract from the mathematics, leading to mixed feelings about its suitability for all audiences.
