Number Demon

Math? Allah bless! Even thinking about mathematics is enough to make most of us go into our shells. The situation is no different for Robert, the hero of this book. One night, he sees a 'Number Demon' in his dream, and for twelve nights, this 'Number Demon' engages in such a curious and entertaining game in the world of those damned numbers that all the darkness in Robert's mind - and of course the readers of the book - is destroyed. The dots light up one by one. Yes, mathematics does not have to be a nightmare. Fear of mathematics is nothing more than a superstition. Hans Magnus Enzensberger, one of Germany's important poets and thinkers, has written a very unusual, yet entertaining book this time. It starts the reader from 1+1=2 and takes the reader through the surprising but not as complicated paths of mathematics as one might think. 'The Number Demon' is an indispensable reference book for those who are afraid of mathematics, think that they do not understand it, and want to discover its mysteries. This book, which both entertains and teaches, will be an unforgettable adventure for everyone, young or old.
