{"product_id":"tracking-the-automatic-ant-david-gale-9781461274537","title":"Tracking the Automatic Ant: And Other Mathematical Explorations","description":"David Gale's Mathematical Entertainments columns in the Mathematical Intelligencer, a prime source of entertainment for everyone with an interest in mathematics, are here collected in book form for the first time. Gale has ranged widely over the entire field of mathematics yet returns often to favorite concerns: triangles, tilings, the mysterious properties of sequences given by simple recursions, and the peculiar automaton that gives this collection its title. This book requires some familiarity with mathematical concepts but not great sophistication.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Gale\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1461274532\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781461274537\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 241\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.54d","brand":"David Gale","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48518543048959,"sku":"9781461274537","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7da32c10-3153-4ecb-a4da-4063db6d6c08.jpg?v=1778734781","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tracking-the-automatic-ant-david-gale-9781461274537","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
