Do you know which famous proof was inscribed on Archimedes' tomb? How to tie a perfect pentagon on a strip of paper? Have you ever found a proof completely obvious? Burkhard Polste r introduces us in this small and beautifully illustrated book to the most beautiful mathematical proofs and the fundamental principles of proofs in general. He focuses primarily on those that have graphically interesting representations, but this does not limit the range of problems to geometry alone. The book is intended for laypeople, but even professional mathematicians will find something here. Test your ability to follow the logical structure of a mathematical proof and don't miss the experience of one Eureka after another. Show more
