Perfect for either undergraduate mathematics or science history courses, this account presents a fresh and detailed reconstruction of the development of two mathematical fundamentals: numbers and infinity. One of the rare texts that offers a friendly and conversational tone, it avoids tedium and controversy while maintaining historical accuracy in defining its concepts' profound mathematical significance.
The authors begin by discussing the representation of numbers, integers and types of numbers, and cubic equations. Additional topics include complex numbers, quaternions, and vectors; Greek notions of infinity; the 17th-century development of the calculus; the concept of functions; and transfinite numbers. The text concludes with an appendix on essay topics, a bibliography, and an index.

Very handy to have to spot them easily
Color: Dark Blue
Love the cases, have a different color on each rooms tv. Hopefully it will protect from a drop as that is what prompted me to buy it. We cracked the screen on our last remote and they are expensive to replace. Good price

Nice but Could be better
This is a nice product to house all you remotes in one spot on the night table next to a bed or where ever you keep remotes. For the most part this remote control holder is sturdy, attractive and convenient. I has two levels but is lacking a separator on each level to prob your remotes up and keep them from sliding sideways. So, I would recommend the ability to put "remote control" dividers, perhaps somehow adjustable, where you could slide the divider to the width of each respective remote to keep it standing up and not sliding sideways that create a "pile or stack" of remotes.
