Yes and no. I mean, it depends. The first book is pic related until I get my copy of Alhazen’s 6th book of the Optics in the mail.

That one book is enough to keep track of. Ptolemy’s Almagest actually surpasses it in difficulty, but whereas Von Neumann’s Book has fluctuations around a pretty steady difficulty (which is high), if you’re reading The Almagest like I am from cover to cover it has HUGE rises and falls in difficulty. The section I’m on right now is very easy and superficial, planetary epicyclic anomalies. But when he was explaining how to calculate the lunar/solar parallax I fucking lost it. Unbelievably hard. That was a time when it soared above Game Theory in complexity.

So it just depends. Right now the Game Theory Book is actually kind of easier, and so was everything else. The Game Theory chapters with ‘L-dimensional hyperspace’s made my head hurt for surr
