Explores symmetry - a concept that is simple, complex, multi-disciplinary and unifying. This book narrates the history of this area of study, from its roots in 10th-century BC Babylon to its role in 21st century physics. It describes the world beyond superstrings: the octonionic symmetries that may explain the very existence of the universe. With illustrations. Hardback, 304 pages. Size: 236 x 156 mm. Weight: 561g.

While taking a class on infinity at Stanford in the 1980s, Ravi Kapoor discovers that he is confronting the same mathematical and philosophical dilemmas that his mathematician grandfather had faced many decades earlier - and that had landed him in jail. This book tells the story about what it means to face the extent of human knowledge. With 56 line illus. 4 tables.. Hardback, 292 pages. Size: 229 x 152 mm. Weight: 560g.
