博客來Srinivasa Ramanujan: A Life in Numbers
Born into poverty and intellectual isolation in a small Indian village, Srinivasa Ramanujan was a self-taught genius who reinvented mathematics from his own mind. With no formal training, he filled notebooks with thousands of theorems and formulas, seeing a universe of patterns invisible to others. His life story is a stunning journey of intuition and faith that culminates in a desperate letter to G. H. Hardy, the esteemed Cambridge mathematician.
This book charts the incredible intellectual partnership that followed-a clash of cultures and mathematical philosophies between a rigorous English academic and a visionary from the East. It is a story of triumph and tragedy, a deep look at the genius who unlocked some of the most profound secrets of numbers before his life was tragically cut short. Discover the enduring legacy of a man whose work continues to shape modern science, a testament to the idea that true genius knows no bounds. Approx.168 pages, 33500 word count
