An outrageous graphic novel that investigates key concepts in
mathematics Integers and permutations-two of the most basic
mathematical objects-are born of different fields and analyzed with
separate techniques. Yet when the Mathematical Sciences
Investigation team of crack forensic mathematicians, led by
Professor Gauss, begins its autopsies of the victims of two
seemingly unrelated homicides, Arnie Integer and Daisy Permutation,
they discover the most extraordinary similarities between the
structures of each body. Prime Suspects is a graphic novel that
takes you on a voyage of forensic discovery, exploring some of the
most fundamental ideas in mathematics. Travel with Detective von
Neumann as he leaves no clue unturned, from shepherds' huts in the
Pyrenees to secret societies in the cafes of Paris, from the hidden
codes in the music of the stones to the grisly discoveries in
Finite Fields. Tremble at the ferocity of the believers in deep and
rigid abstraction. Feel the frustration-and the excitement-of our
young heroine, Emmy Germain, as she blazes a trail for women in
mathematical research and learns from Professor Gauss, the greatest
forensic detective of them all. Beautifully drawn and exquisitely
detailed, Prime Suspects is unique, astonishing, and witty-a
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience mathematics like never
before.
