Prime Obsession

Description
Taxing the best mathematical minds until today, Prime Obsession is Bernhardt Riemann’s challenge to mankind in the mould of Fermat’s Last Theorem. His question was:

Is there a general rule to ascertain how many prime numbers are there less than a number?

The book is also interesting in its biographical sketch of the life of Riemann, whose non-euclidean geometry was the building block for Einstein’s relativity theory.
