Naming Infinity: A True Story of Religious Mysticism and Mathematical Creativity
Loren Graham
In 1913, Russian marines stormed an Orthodox monastery at Mt. Athos, Greece to haul off monks engaged in a dangerously heretical practice known as Name Worshipping. The authors take us on an exciting mathematical mystery tour as they unravel a bizarre tale of political struggles, psychological crises, sexual complexities, and ethical dilemmas.
