- Used
- Hardcover
Randomness works just fine on an everyday level but mysteriously disappears once we move in to examine its fine structure. Mathematician Edward Beltrami takes a close enough look at randomness to make it mysteriously disappear. The author suggests order and randomness, like waves and particles, are two sides of the same coin. Illustrated.
