"Lisez Euler, lisez Euler, c'est notre maître à tous." (Read Euler, read Euler,
he is the master of us all.) Pierre-Simon Laplace's tribute to Swiss-born
mathematician Leonhard Euler (1707-83) might stand as the gateway to this stand
-alone sequel to An Imaginary Tale. With memorable anecdotes, author Paul Nahin
introduces readers to numerous advanced applications of complex numbers in pure
and applied mathematics and to electronic technology. His writing skills and
obvious enthusiasm for his topics convey the deep aesthetics and clarity of
mathematical discoveries.

Table of Contents

Preface : "when did math become sexy?"
1 Complex numbers (an assortment of essays beyond the elementary involving
complex numbers)
2 Vector trips (some complex plane problems in which direction matters)
3 The irrationality of [pi][superscript 2] ("higher" math at the sophomore
level)
4 Fourier series (named after Fourier but Euler was there first - but he
was, alas, partially wrong!)
5 Fourier integrals (what happens as the period of a periodic function
becomes infinite, and other neat stuff)
6 Electronics and [actual symbol not reproducible] (technological
applications of complex numbers that Euler, who was a practical fellow
himself, would have loved)
Euler : the man and the mathematical physicist
