Against a tableau of famous historical figures-among them G.H. Hardy, the self-taught Indian genius Srinivasa Ramanujan, and a young Kurt Godel-Petros works furiously to prove the notoriously difficult conjecture. Decades later, his ambitious young nephew drives the defeated mathematician back into the hunt to prove Goldbachs Conjecture. . . but at the cost of the old mans sanity, and perhaps even his life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45253369364533,"sku":"ByrdShop_1582340676","price":46.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781582340678_15599141-924d-459f-abca-e37bff583cfa.jpg?v=1779942397","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/uncle-petros-and-goldbachs-conjecture-9781582340678","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
