Description:This volume contains 22 poems by American poet and philosopher Emily Grosholz. The poems in this book blend mathematical topics from fractals to negative curvature with history, classicism, and human emotions. Includes illustrations by Robert Fathauer.Comments about the “Play with mathematics? Emily Grosholz’s poems do that and much more. They illuminate its mysteries with alephs flung like a candelabrum, challenge us to study the morphology of the amorphous, and embrace mathematics’ aethereal aesthetic. Out of fixed proportions, beauty the elegance, conciseness, and precision of these poems go straight to its heart.” – Marjorie Wikler Senechal“Transfinite and transcendental converge in this delicious medley of verses pulsating with passion and life. Like fractals' captivating patterns, these poems will make you contemplate the infinite possibilities of symmetry, harmony, and love.” – Edward Frenkel“Emily Grosholz's poems respond to streets in Paris, towns in Italy, the body of her husband, the fractals of Benoit Mandelbrot, the transfinite of Georg Cantor. Her linkages of mathematics and poetry can teach both poets and mathematicians. Grosholz's poetic imagination leaps to mathematical depths and heights where discursive reason is left behind.” – Reuben HershWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
