Mathematics

Paperback. One of the greatest revolutions in mathematics occurred when Georg Cantor promulgated his theory of transfinite sets. His religious beliefs led him to expect paradoxes in any concept of the infinite. This work shows that these played an integral part in his understanding and defense of set theory.

Paperback. Deals with the properties of conics (plane curves of second degree) that can be formulated and proved using only elementary geometry. Starting with the well-known optical properties of conics, this book moves to less trivial results, both classical and contemporary. It demonstrates the advantage of purely geometric methods of studying conics. Series: Mathematical World. Num Pages: 134 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBM.
