I am convinced that [Lieber's] original enterprise will get the recognition it so richly deserves."--Albert Einstein "The Liebers have written an ingenious, entertaining, and illuminating book."--Saturday Review of Literature "The book should be 'required reading' especially for non-mathematicians."--E.T. Bell, author of The Development of Mathematics First published in 1942, this whimsical exploration of how to think in a mathematical mood continues to delight math-lovers of all ages.
