Description
- Why do telephone cables always twist so much?
- What do the empires of the Moon have to do with electronic circuits?
- How many bottles of milk can fit in a crate?
- And most importantly... what is the best way to cut a cake?
In "How to Cut a Cake," Professor Ian Stewart takes us on an amazing journey into the world of Mathematics, a world for strong solvers, presenting twenty incredible puzzles and problems. Some have significant practical applications, while others have puzzled the best mathematicians for decades. Despite their quirks, however, they remain fascinating.
The author, one of the most popular in mathematical matters, reveals to us a strange universe of never-ending chess games, synchronously glowing fireflies, and, of course, disagreements about the best way to cut a cake. From shoelaces to soap bubbles and the Sierpinski triangle, he shows us the power and diversity of modern Mathematics, with topics ranging from graphs, probabilities, and logic, to topology and quasicrystals (and let's not forget, the division of a cake).
Diving into the twenty chapters of his book, almost all of which are self-contained sections, we will discover a mathematical landscape we had no idea existed...
