Abstract

The book titled ‘Ramanujan: From Zero to Infinity’ is written by Arundhati Venkatesh and illustrated by Priya Kuriyan. The main character of this children’s storybook is the Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan (1887 – 1920), as a precocious ten-year-old. While the story is a work of historical fiction, many of the details used in it were inspired by true events of Ramanujan’s life, as mentioned in the ‘Afterword’ of the book.
