Desde tiempos del cardenal Richelieu, cuando entre las habilidades de un mosquetero se incluía el saber jugar billar, hasta las películas como The Hustler y The Colour of Money, el billar siempre ha fascinado por su combinación de juego y ciencia. Carlos Bosch demuestra con abundancia de ejemplos y mediante la resolución de problemas geométricos y algebraicos que el billar merece utilizarse como una lúdica herramienta de razonamiento. El autor toma como punto de partida el regalo de un taco de billar para esbozar la historia de este juego y explicar sus nociones básicas y los detalles de su evolución.

<p>A functional calculus is a construction which associates with an operator or a family of operators a homomorphism from a function space into a subspace of continuous linear operators, i.e. a method for defining "functions of an operator". Perhaps the most familiar example is based on the spectral theorem for bounded self-adjoint operators on a complex Hilbert space.This book contains an exposition of several such functional calculi. In particular, there is an exposition based on the spectral theorem for bounded, self-adjoint operators, an extension to the case of several commuting self-adjoint operators and an extension to normal operators. The Riesz operational calculus based on the Cauchy integral theorem from complex analysis is also described. Finally, an exposition of a functional calculus due to H. Weyl is given.</p>
