Along the way, he introduces us to the many brilliant and fascinating thinkers who have contributed to this work, from the most famous mathematician of all time, Carl Friedrich Gauss (Riemann’s teacher), to the intellectual giants David Hilbert and Freeman Dyson.

A lively, comprehensive, and accessible examination of one of the most compelling unsolved problems in mathematics, Stalking the Riemann Hypothesis tells us the full story of the quest to find that elusive solution.]]> 748825 3 734965 9 5 2005 Stalking the Riemann Hypothesis: The Quest to Find the Hidden Law of Prime Numbers total:11|4:4|3:2|2:5| 11 32 20 3 2034216 0.0 0 0 62309474 1286876 748825 0375727728 9780375727726 3 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1177997394m/748825.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1177997394s/748825.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/748825.Stalking_the_Riemann_Hypothesis_The_Quest_to_Find_the_Hidden_Law_of_Prime_Numbers 2.91 11
