William Dunham - Journey Through Genius (1990) Journey Through Genius: The Great Theorems of Mathematics By William Dunham, 1990 ISBN-10: 014014739X ISBN-13: 978-0140147391 Language: English Size: 7.67MB, 313 pages "Like masterpieces of art, music, and literature, great mathematical theorems are creative milestones, works of genius destined to last forever. Now William Dunham gives them the attention they deserve. Dunham places each theorem within its historical context and explores the very human and often turbulent life of the creator — from Archimedes, the absentminded theoretician whose absorption in his work often precluded eating or bathing, to Gerolamo Cardano, the sixteenth-century mathematician whose accomplishments flourished despite a bizarre array of misadventures, to the paranoid genius of modern times, Georg Cantor. He also provides step-by-step proofs for the theorems, each easily accessible to readers with no more than a knowledge of high school mathematics." Notes: - Not my scan; I don't know where I got it (may have even been here) but it needed some extensive cleanup: -- Rescanned numerous images that were almost completely black -- Cleaned hundreds of pieces of garbage from the scans, ie blackness beyond page edges, specks and dirt, etc. -- Removed dozens of bitmapped words interspersed into the text and replaced with proper text -- Fixed a few dozen alignment issues - As far as I know, this book is not available commercially in e-Book form. - There's only a PDF as I find it a pain to convert to other formats... sorry. Feel free of course!
