About this product

Product Information

Uncle Petros is a family joke, but his young nephew suspects there is more to this ageing recluse, living alone in a suburb of Athens. He discovers Petros was once a celebrated mathematician, foolhardy enough to stake everything on solving a problem that defied proof for nearly three centuries.

  • Fascinating story with very understandable links to mathematics.

    Well written narrative, with a storyline which raises echos of my university days (but would be good reading for anyone). I studied Maths & Physics, and then went into industry where the maths was not used much - this brought it all back to me!!
