keef's review against another edition
4.0
This wants to be a pop intro to the concept of history. It succeeds, mostly, and gives a fairly concise socio-historical look at the history of infinity through its modern applications. Unfortunately, I couldn't get all the way through it-- I got about two-thirds of the way through before I got tired of understanding so little of the actual math involved. This was a book that made me want to take a math class again. It should be commended for that.
