书籍简介

这部惊世骇俗的图像小说探讨了数学中的关键概念。整数和排列——两个基本的数学对象——诞生于不同的领域，并采用不同的方法进行分析。然而，当由高斯教授领导的由法医数学家组成的数学科学调查小组开始对两起看似毫无关联的凶杀案的受害者——整数阿尼和排列黛西——进行尸检时，他们发现两具尸体的结构之间存在着惊人的相似之处。《头号嫌疑犯》是一部图像小说，它将带你踏上一段法医发现之旅，探索数学中基本的一些概念。跟随冯·诺伊曼侦探的脚步，看他如何不放过任何线索，从比利牛斯山脉的牧羊人小屋到巴黎咖啡馆的秘密社团，从石头音乐中的隐藏密码到有限域中令人毛骨悚然的发现。感受一下那些深奥而严谨的抽象理论信徒们的狂热吧。感受我们年轻的女主人公艾米·杰曼的挫败与兴奋，看她如何为女性在数学研究领域开辟道路，并向史上伟大的法医侦探高斯教授学习。《头号嫌疑犯》画面精美，细节刻画入微，独具匠心，令人惊叹，妙趣横生——这是一次千载难逢的机会，让你以从未有过的方式体验数学。

An outrageous graphic novel that investigates key concepts in mathematicsIntegers and permutations-two of the most basic mathematical objects-are born of different fields and analyzed with separate techniques. Yet when the Mathematical Sciences Investigation team of crack forensic mathematicians, led by Professor Gauss, begins its autopsies of the victims of two seemingly unrelated homicides, Arnie Integer and Daisy Permutation, they discover the most extraordinary similarities between the structures of each body.Prime Suspects is a graphic novel that takes you on a voyage of forensic discovery, exploring some of the most fundamental ideas in mathematics. Travel with Detective von Neumann as he leaves no clue unturned, from shepherds’ huts in the Pyrenees to secret societies in the cafes of Paris, from the hidden codes in the music of the stones to the grisly discoveries in Finite Fields. Tremble at the ferocity of the believers in deep and rigid abstraction. Feel the frustration-and the excitement-of our young protagonist, Emmy Germain, as she blazes a trail for women in mathematical research and learns from Professor Gauss, the greatest forensic detective of them all.Beautifully drawn and exquisitely detailed, Prime Suspects is unique, astonishing, and witty-a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience mathematics like never before.
