SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Originally published in German as Der Zahlen gigantische Schatten with great critical acclaim, this English translation by two involved readers is pleasing and easy to read while preserving the intellectual spirit of the original. A background in mathematics is not necessary to enjoy and learn from this book. All that is required is an interest in the world around us and a desire to understand the impact and influence that numbers have, both historically and in our daily lives.
