The first title in our seriesPhysics and Mathexplains a wide range of natural phenomena and mathematical concepts. Have you ever wondered what exactly antimatter is? How about game theory, quantum mechanics, and the origin of pi? Mathematicians and professors from universities across the country tackle these topics, drawing on their extensive expertise to give answers that are at once accurate and comprehensible by those who havent studied physics or math since high school.

Title: Martin Gardner: The Magic and Mystery of Numbers

Author: Scientific American

Narrator: Kate Mulligan

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7:00:00

Language: English

Release date: 12-22-20

Publisher: Blackstone Audiobooks

Genres: Biography & Memoir, Science & Technology

Summary:

How many people achieve a cult following because of their writing in mathematics? Only a handful, and Martin Gardner is among the most well known and well loved. Not only did he present a notoriously difficult subject in an engaging and accessible way, but in doing so, he attracted an incredibly broad readership. His correspondents ranged from academics like Roger Penrose and John Horton Conway to artists MC Escher and Salvador Dali to writer Isaac Asimov. His Mathematical Games column in Scientific American ran nearly every month for twenty-six years and was one of the most popular in the magazines history.

In this anthology, we strove to create a new slice through his wealth of material. Here, we focus on all flavors of numbers, from common integers and negative numbers to figurate numbers and the exotic random number Omega, which can be described but not computed.

Some of these columns are less well known, but they are no less fun. In true Gardner fashion, they leap from magic and gamesas well as art, music, and literatureto flashes of deep mathematical insight. We hope that they will prove as inspirational now as they did to earlier audiences.
