The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Calculus is a powerful mathematical tool. But for hundreds of years after its invention in the 17th century, it stood on a shaky ...

In the late 19th century, Karl Weierstrass invented a fractal-like function that was decried as nothing less than a “deplorable evil.” In time, it would transform the foundations of mathematics.

THIS pleasant and moderately priced little book forms an excellent introduction to the complex variable. It is written in a brisk and lucid style, and may be confidently recommended to students of ...
