Extract

It has always seemed to me that one of the most fascinating parts of learning mathematics is the recognition of an inter-relation between what seemed before to be totally unconnected branches of mathematics. These relationships, which often help to cement ideas in both branches of the subject, are very often not discussed in school text books, perhaps because authors worry that they may be assuming too much background on the part of their readers.
