However, many are now facing enormous difficulties because of rapidly rising food and fuel prices, with the threat of millions of people being pushed into poverty around the globe. The risk of continued food price volatility is a systemic challenge, and a failure in one country has been shown to have a profound impact on entire regions.

Instead it is a lively story about one thread of mathematics-the concept of "number"­ told by eight authors and organized into a historical narrative that leads the reader from ancient Egypt to the late twentieth century. It is a story that begins with some of the simplest ideas of mathematics and ends with some of the most complex. It is a story that mathematicians, both amateur and professional, ought to know. Why write about numbers? Mathematicians have always found it diffi­ cult to develop broad perspective about their subject. While we each view our specialty as having roots in the past, and sometimes having connec­ tions to other specialties in the present, we seldom see the panorama of mathematical development over thousands of years. Numbers attempts to give that broad perspective, from hieroglyphs to K-theory, from Dedekind cuts to nonstandard analysis.Readings in Mathematics ;123Number theoryNumber Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M25001Number theory.Number Theory.512/.7Ebbinghaus Heinz-Dieter1939-authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1068399Hermes Hansauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autHirzebruch Friedrichauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autKoecher Maxauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMainzer Klausauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autNeukirch Jürgenauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autPrestel Alexanderauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autRemmert Reinholdauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autEwing John Hedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910789225403321Numbers3840258UNINA
