2002BOLLATI BORINGHIERI 2002 PRIMA EDIZIONE. LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO ALLA COPERTINA, VOLUME INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. La brillante descrizione che non mancherà di appassionare anche chi non abbia competenze matematiche o scientifiche del modo in cui il concetto di zero, con quello gemello di infinito, ha più volte rivoluzionato i fondamenti della civiltà e del pensiero filosofico. Quarta di copertina Destinato anche a chi non abbia competenze matematiche o scientifiche, il libro offre una brillante descrizione del modo in cui il concetto di zero, con quello gemello di infinito, ha più volte rivoluzionato i fondamenti della civiltà e del pensiero flosofico. La storia del numero zero è seguita dalla sua nascita come concetto filosofico orientale alla sua combattuta accettazione in Europa (com'è noto, non fu accolto dai greci) e alla sua apoteosi nel quadro della teoria dei buchi neri. Da Aristotele a Einstein e oltre, viene qui presentata la ricca e complessa storia della semplice nozione di "nulla" sulla quale si confrontarono scienziati e mistici, cosmologi e religiosi, ogni volta mettendo in crisi le basi della filosofia, della scienza, della teologia.
