To infinity and beyond : a cultural history of the infinite
\"To Infinity and Beyond\" explores the idea of infinity in mathematics and art. Eli Maor examines the role of infinity, as well as its cultural impact on the arts and sciences. He evokes the profound intellectual impact the infinite has exercised on the human mind -- from the \"horror infiniti\" of the Greeks to the works of M.C. Escher; the ornamental designs of the Muslims; and the sage Giordano Bruno, whose belief in an infinite universe led to his death at the hands of the Inquisition. But above all, \"To Infinity and Beyond\" describes the mathematician's fascination -- and puzzlement -- with infinity.
