Introducing the Collins Modern Classics, a series featuring some of
the most significant books of recent times, books that shed light
on the human experience - classics which will endure for
generations to come. 'Maths is one of the purest forms of thought,
and to outsiders mathematicians may seem almost otherworldly' In
1963, schoolboy Andrew Wiles stumbled across the world's greatest
mathematical problem: Fermat's Last Theorem. Unsolved for over 300
years, he dreamed of cracking it. Combining thrilling storytelling
with a fascinating history of scientific discovery, Simon Singh
uncovers how an Englishman, after years of secret toil, finally
solved mathematics' most challenging problem. Fermat's Last Theorem
is remarkable story of human endeavour, obsession and intellectual
brilliance, sealing its reputation as a classic of popular science
writing. 'To read it is to realise that there is a world of beauty
and intellectual challenge that is denied to 99.9 per cent of us
who are not high-level mathematicians' The Times
