PRODUCT INFORMATION

Product description

"Crazy About Pi" by Helvetiq takes children and curious adults on an exciting journey to explore one of the world's most fascinating numbers. Pi is useful for calculating circles, balls, or arcs—but above all, it is infinite, irrational, and full of secrets. This richly illustrated nonfiction book explains why people have been fascinated by pi for millennia, how mathematicians from various cultures have explored the number, and why its decimal places are still being calculated today. From Archimedes to Srinivasa Ramanujan, from the ancient Egyptians and the Maya to Arab and Chinese scholars, the book weaves together history, geography, philosophy, and mathematics into an entertaining adventure. With magic tricks, clever tricks, and jokes, *Crazy About Pi* shows just how surprisingly lively mathematics can be.
