From Newton's Law of Gravity to the Black-Scholes model used by
bankers to predict the markets, equations, are everywhere -- and
they are fundamental to everyday life.Seventeen Equations that
Changed the World examines seventeen ground-breaking equations that
have altered the course of human history. He explores how
Pythagoras's Theorem led to GPS and Satnav; how logarithms are
applied in architecture; why imaginary numbers were important in
the development of the digital camera, and what is really going on
with Schroedinger's cat. Entertaining, surprising and vastly
informative, Seventeen Equations that Changed the World is a highly
original exploration -- and explanation -- of life on earth.
