{"product_id":"recountings-joel-segel-9781568817132","title":"Recountings: Conversations with MIT Mathematicians","description":"This book traces the history of the MIT Department of Mathematics--one of the most important mathematics departments in the world--through candid, in-depth, lively conversations with a select and diverse group of its senior members. The process reveals much about the motivation, path, and impact of research mathematicians in a society that owes so much to this little understood and often mystifying section of its intellectual fabric. At a time when the mathematical experience touches and attracts more laypeople than ever, such a book contributes to our understanding and entertains through its personal approach.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joel Segel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1568817134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781568817132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e A K PETERS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.90d","brand":"Joel Segel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48088575639807,"sku":"9781568817132","price":66.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_938ca05e-6860-44e6-95d0-34226d9f5194.jpg?v=1769105536","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/recountings-joel-segel-9781568817132","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
