Description
Paul Erdös was one of the most prolific mathematicians who ever lived. He
pioneered several fields in theoretical mathematics and published or
co-authored more than 1,500 mathematical papers, in a field where 50 good
papers in a lifetime would be considered an achievement. Using interviews with
Erdös himself, film clips of Erdös lecturing and discussions with those who
knew and were influenced by him, N IS A NUMBER: A PORTRAIT OF PAUL ERDÖS captures the life and work of this accomplished scholar and teacher. N IS A
NUMBER: A PORTRAIT OF PAUL ERDÖS provides insight into the mathematical quest of this amazing man, the personal and philosophical dimensions of his work and the tragic historical events that molded this extraordinary life. |
