The Last Theorem
Frederik Pohl
When Ranjit Subramanian, a Sri Lankan with a special gift for numbers, writes a three-page proof of the coveted ?Last Theorem,? which French mathematician Pierre de Fermat claimed to have discovered (but never recorded) in 1637, Ranjit?s achievement is hailed as a work of genius, bringing him fame and fortune. But it also brings him to the attention of the National Security Agency and a shadowy United Nations outfit called Pax per Fidem?or Peace Through Transparency?whose secretive workings belie its name. Suddenly Ranjit?along with his family?finds himself swept up in world-shaking events, his genius for abstract mathematical thought put to uses that are both concrete and potentially deadly.
