An awesome, globe-spanning, and New York Times bestselling journey through the beauty and power of mathematics

What if you had to take an art class in which you were only taught how to paint a fence? What if you were never shown the paintings of van Gogh and Picasso, weren't even told they existed? Alas, this is how math is taught, and so for most of us it becomes the intellectual equivalent of watching paint dry.

In Love and Math, renowned mathematician Edward Frenkel reveals a side of math we've never seen, suffused with all the beauty and elegance of a work of art. In this heartfelt and passionate book, Frenkel shows that mathematics, far from occupying a specialist niche, goes to the heart of all matter, uniting us across cultures, time, and space.

Love and Math tells two intertwined stories: of the wonders of mathematics and of one young man's journey learning and living it. Having braved a discriminatory educational system to become one of the twenty-first century's leading mathematicians, Frenkel now works on one of the biggest ideas to come out of math in the last 50 years: the Langlands Program. Considered by many to be a Grand Unified Theory of mathematics, the Langlands Program enables researchers to translate findings from one field to another so that they can solve problems, such as Fermat's last theorem, that had seemed intractable before.

At its core, Love and Math is a story about accessing a new way of thinking, which can enrich our lives and empower us to better understand the world and our place in it. It is an invitation to discover the magic hidden universe of mathematics.

Smells amazing
I recently stayed at The Westin Anaheim and found I really loved their bathing line. I wanted to purchase it and bring it back with me but had absolutely no room in my luggage. I was very pleased to see I could buy it on Amazon. My husband’s bathroom has always been very sparse and kind of thrown together with random shampoos and body washes so I used this bundle to start transforming it into a nicer, better smelling bathroom that appears more cohesive and appealing. It absolutely worked and I also love how he smells after showering now! He loves that I’m all over him because he smells so nice! The scent of the products is very relaxing.

Great smell minimal lather
These were very expensive and I would hope that they would be very high-end products. They smell wonderful, but neither the shampoo nor the body wash is big on the lather, and you tend to use more than you probably should. The lotion is nice and smells nice as well. I have not yet used the soap disks. I do think the price point is a bit ridiculous for the amount of product you get, but I guess if you’re looking for the smell, then it is worth it.
