Description de l’éditeur

Each chapter in this eBook begins with a weird clock, and discusses the mathematics that turns up in its wake.  Most, but not all, of the clocks describe curves, so much, but not all, of the mathematics involves the geometry of curves. 

Striking interactive visual proofs of intriguing results will whet your appetite to explore this mathematics yourself.

This book will delight anybody with an interest in mathematics, regardless of how much or how little formal education they have in the subject.
