Publisher Description: Geekspeak is Dr. Graham Tattersall's quirky love letter to math, logic, and problem solving... and to the self-professed geeks everywhere who revel in such esoterica. Written for the numero-phobic and the calcu-lover alike, Geekspeak doesn't shy away from complex problems, but always explains them in a way that's elegantly curious, easily understood, and, above all, endlessly entertaining. |
