With his talent for storytelling, astrophysics doctorate Trinh Xuan Thuan delivers a radiant reflection on the infinitude of the universe.

Nothing could be harder to get our minds around than the concept of infinity. As such, the infinite has always fascinated human beings, whether artists, philosophers, or scientists. But does infinity exist as a physical reality, or is it, as Aristotle believed, merely a mental representation?
To the mind-boggling questions that provoke such reflections, Trinh Thuan Xuan skillfully and lucidly provides answers, approaching the topic of infinity on the scientific, philosophical, and poetic level.
