Descrizione Roads to Infinity
This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the role of infinity in mathematics, from ancient to modern times. It is aimed at a general audience and introduces most of the required techniques from scratch. While the mathematical requirements do not extend very far beyond high school mathematics, the author succeeds in explaining the critical philosophical issues connected to the concept of infinity and their relevance for the foundations of mathematics.
