When and why did humans begin to count objects around them? Or observe the stars and make calendars? Why did they need fractions and the circumference of a circle? Who came up with the idea of taking the square root of two or calculating instantaneous velocity? And who, when, and why began studying mathematics? This book tells the history of this science in a captivating and witty manner—from the creation of numbers to the invention of imaginary numbers, from the construction of right triangles to the curved spaces of Lobachevsky and Riemann, from observing constellations to the discoveries of Newton and Einstein. And all this is told in the form of funny, and sometimes incredible, stories in which mathematicians from different eras and countries debate, experiment, joke, and even have picnics. From Egypt to China, from India to Greece—the history of mathematics spans continents and millennia. This book will be a wonderful supplement to school mathematics and computer science curricula.
