Here is an altogther refreshing and alternative history of math, revealing how simple questions anyone might ask about space - in the living room or some other galaxy - have been the hidden engines of the highest achievements in science and technology.
Leonard Mlodinow has a PhD, has been a member of the facaulty of the California Institute of Technology, a television writer in Hollywood, as well as developing many award winning CD-Roms. He is Vice President of Emerging Technologies and r&D at Scholastic Inc and lives in New York city.
