Dot, Dot, Dot: Infinity Plus God Equals Folly

by James A. Lindsay, Victor J. Stenger ...

Infinity and God have been close bedfellows over the recent millennia of human thought. But this is James A. Lindsay's point. These two ideas are thought, mere concepts. Lindsay shows in a concise and readable manner that infinity is an abstraction, and shows that, in all likelihood, so is God, particularly if he has infinite properties.This book is about math. It is about God. It is about ... Read more

A Ordem Do Infinito

by Esley Maxuel ...

Para Elias Vane, a realidade é u lugar caótico, enquanto os números oferecem um refúgio de simetria perfeita. Assombrado pela Hipótese de Riemann, o maior enigma da matemática, a sua busca obsessiva pela ordem ameaça consumir sua sanidade. Quando a lógica colapsa, Elias descobre que a chave para o infinito não reside na frieza das equações, mas na imperfeição da vida humana. A Ordem do Infinito é ... Read more
