Lisez Euler, lisez Euler, c'est notre maître à tous. (Read Euler, read Euler, he is the master of us all.) Pierre-Simon Laplace's tribute to Swiss-born mathematician Leonhard Euler (1707-83) might stand as the gateway to this stand-alone sequel to An Imaginary Tale. With memorable anecdotes, author Paul Nahin introduces readers to numerous advanced applications of complex numbers in pure and applied mathematics and to electronic technology. His writing skills and obvious enthusiasm for his topics convey the deep aesthetics and clarity of mathematical discoveries.
