This book is not only about the history of mathematics, but also by
telling the story of some of the most distinctive personalities in the
history of mathematics, it goes on to reveal the various strange
treasures, bright flowers and hidden passions of the mathematical
kingdom. Some of these mathematicians were thinkers, writers, poets,
musicians, painters, politicians, judges, soldiers, clerks, young men
of society or even prisoners. The mathematical world constructed by
these geniuses is exquisite, and a walk in such a world not only
expands our mathematical horizons and imagination, but also raises our
humanistic cultivation to a higher level. Written for general
audience, this book will be of interest to anyone who's studied
mathematics in university or even high school, while also benefiting
researchers in mathematics and the humanities. The readers will also
enjoy reading the beautiful and simple language of all the articles
and interviews.
