The numbers

 

My new book under the title (ambitious?) The numbers this Tuesday, February 5, 2019 published.

I am very happy to have repaid some - very little - of my debt to my parents who had made possible my university studies in Budapest, my first teachers of mathematics in primary and French high school in Varna, all the same towards my teachers from the university, among which there are a dozen first-class mathematicians, and finally to Mathematics itself, love, I would say - forever and forever, now I await the judgment of the readers.

I dare to propose this small volume (of 128 pages) to the attention of the laity and all the same to that of professionals. I hope that "all will be served according to their taste".

Here is the table of contents:

I. The numbers of nature

1. "Borko, bring me apples!"

2. Numbers, operations, structures

3. Numbers and other attractions

II. The numbers of the ratio

1. Chipping the numbers

2. Negative Numbers - Victory of Positive Thinking

3. The peak of the ratio: the names of the numbers and the systems

III. The numbers of transcendence

1. Ratio + irratio = Reality?

2. Irratio, at the complex

3. The ambassadors of transcendence

IV. The numbers of the mystic

1. Gnosis and mystery

2. The holy numerology

3. Paradoxes, sophistry, Great secret

V. Numbers of mathematics

1. The strange world of mathematics

2. The strange history of mathematics

3. The number of dethroned

VI. The numbers of the future

1. Go, number!

2. Models and dynamics

3. The language of numbers

VII. Number files

And when could you read this little book in English to know all that matters about numbers?

Hope that soon. I am looking for a publisher.
