From forensics to counterterrorism, the Riemann hypothesis to image enhancement, solving murders to beating casinos, Devlin and Lorden present compelling cases that illustrate how advanced mathematics can be used in state-of-the-art criminal investigations. 899747 28 8 2007 The Numbers Behind NUMB3RS: Solving Crime with Mathematics total:37|5:7|4:14|3:11|2:3|1:2| 37 132 80 11 5 0 false false Sat Oct 10 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Oct 06 22:01:43 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 18 17:45:54 -0700 2009
