Description: The full title of this volume—which won’t fit in the eBay ‘Title’ field—is Contributions To The Founding Of The Theory Of Transfinite Numbers. This Dover book (part of that publisher’s series on Mathematics) reprints the 1915 English translation of the sometimes self-serving work on Infinity by the inventor of Transfinite Numbers, Georg Cantor. The famous German mathematician defines the concepts of cardinal and ordinal numbers and the related ideas of ‘cardinality’ and ‘ordinality’, using these to eventually prove the existence of infinite numbers—sorry, Transfinite numbers. A true classic of math and number theory. This volume is a clean, tight, unmarked copy in good condition. The spine has some sun-fading. (See photos)
