Stalking the Riemann Hypothesis

Rockmore, Daniel N.

A leading mathematician presents a lively and accessible study of one of the great unsolved mysteries of mathematics, the mid-nineteenth-century Riemann hypothesis, which describes the occurrence of prime numbers, and of the quest to prove or disprove the theory from the time of Euclid to the statistics of solitaire, chaos theory, and quantum mechanics.
