The first is the familiar Althusser, that of For Marx and Reading Capital. Symptomatically reading these canonical texts alongside...(展开全部)

Gallery of the Infinite is a mathematician's unique view of the infinitely many sizes of infinity. Written in a playful yet informative style, it introduces important concepts from set theory (including the Cantor Diagonalization Method and the Cantor-Bernstein Theorem) using colorful pictures, with little text and almost no formulas. It requires no specialized background and i...(展开全部)
