Conjecture: Vol. 3: The Math (The Conjecture Series)

By Stephen Hilton

Ok. Now that it's just us math geeks here, and we don't have to tip-toe around the "I'll never use math in everday life" or "Math is Hard" crowd, let's get down to it.
Math IS hard. Damn hard.
Yeah. It can be downright mean sometimes. Leading you down blind alleys, and up hills you didn't need to climb. It's a narcissistic, gas-lighting, promise-breaking siren, who lures you in with the expectation of a warm tropical paradise, and gives you instead, ice-covered tundra and twenty-four hour nights.

Volume 3: The Math of the Conjecture Series strips away the fluff, the short stories, and most of the over-simplified explanations, to get to the main idea: The "Proof" of The Collatz Conjecture. The fun is still there. The snarky side comments, the totally unnecessary but entertaining digressions, but in the end, it's all about the math.

Even if you're not a math geek, or even very good at math, you should find this Volume informative, instructive, and hopefully, engaging.

If you'd rather have your Math sandwiched between a few loaves of fictional narrative, and humorous back-stories, buy the original Volume 1:
CONJECTURE: A Layperson's Proof of the Most Dangerous Problem in Mathematics.

On the other hand, if you feel like you've walked into the wrong classroom thinking this was "Contemporary Fiction 101" you might want to try Volume 2: CONJECTURE: The Tales of Lothar

There's something for everyone in the CONJECTURE-Verse.
