In a stunning, historical narrative, 'The Music of the Primes' reveals the history behind one of the biggest ideas in science.Prime numbers are the very atoms of arithmetic. How can one predict when the next prime number will occur? They also embody one of the most tantalising enigmas in the pursuit of human knowledge.
These apparently simple questions have confounded mathematicians ever since the Ancient Greeks.In 1859, the brilliant German mathematician Bernard Riemann put forward an idea which finally seemed to reveal a magical Is there a formula which could generate primes?
