Synopsis: Mathematik ist nicht jedermanns Sache. Wer sie liebt, fur den ist sie spannend und aufregend wie das schonste Ratsel. Fur viele Menschen aber ist Mathematik ein Buch mit sieben Siegeln, das man ehrfurchtsvoll den "Eingeweihten" uberlasst. Das Ziel von Was ist Mathematik? ist es, Brucken zu schlagen und jeden einzuladen, das Reich der Mathematik zu betreten, der neugierig genug ist, sich auf ein Abenteuer einzulassen. Die Autoren verschweigen nicht, dass Mathematik neben Begabung auch viel Fleiss und Mitdenken erfordert: man sollte sich mit ihr beschaftigen, nicht nur uber sie philosophieren. Wer aber bereit ist, beides einzusetzen, den fuhren die Autoren mit grossem Geschick und anschaulichen Hilfsmitteln hin zu einem Einblick in das innere Gefuge der Mathematik sowie ihrer historischen Entwicklung. Behandelt werden die Fragenkomplexe: Zahlen, geometrische Konstruktionen, Algebra der Zahlkorper, projektive Geometrie, Axiomatik, nichteuklidische Geometrien, Topologie, Funktionen, Grenzwerte, Extrema und Infinitesimalrechnung. Was ist Mathematik? ist fur Leser jeden Alters und jeder Vorbildung gedacht. Gymnasiallehrer finden eine reiche Auswahl an Beispielen, Studenten ist es ein Leitfaden, wenn sie die Orientierung zu verlieren meinen, und Dozenten werden sich an den Feinheiten der Darstellung zweier Meister ihres Faches erfreuen."
