Book Summary of The Sensual (Quadratic) Form

The distinguished mathematician John Conway presents quadratic forms in a pictorial way that enables the reader to understand them mathematically without proving theorems in the traditional fashion. One learns to sense their properties. In his customary enthusiastic style, Conway uses his theme to cast light on all manner of mathematical topics from algebra, number theory and geometry, including many new ideas and features.

Editorial Reviews

Though pairing with may seem oxymoronic, Conway (mathematics, Princeton U.) seeks beauty in form like mathematicians since Pythagoras. Based on lectures at the 1991 Joint Meetings of the American Mathematical Society/Mathematical Association of America, the discoverer of surreal numbers (and inventor of the mathematical game of ), conveys to non- specialists as well as peers (with technical afterthoughts) his thesis that one can appreciate such forms with all the senses. Intriguing titles include: "Can you hear the shape of a lattice?" "The primary fragrances." "A taste of number theory." Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
