Synopsis
At the time her 9 year old son was diagnosed with a brain tumour, Joan Richards was writing a book about a 19th century mathematician, Augustus De Morgan. Immersed in this abstract, logical world of science, she was forced by her son's illness to confront a different kind of reality and its consequences. As the strain of caring for her sick child mounts, Richard's view of De Morgan broadens to include his family in ways that both illuminate his work and force her to re-evaluate her own career and relationships.
