Description
Paul Erdos was a mathematician like no other. At just four years old, he could calculate the number of seconds you'd been alive. Yet, it wasn't until he was twenty that he learned to take care of himself. Instead of staying at home, he traveled the world, collaborating with fellow mathematicians on countless publications. This book tells the story of a unique individual who made a lasting impact on the world of mathematics.
