Most Helpful Customer Reviews   1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: 4.0 out of 5 stars 'It's time to be utterly amazed, as you're whisked off to infinity and back with Numbers....', 8 Mar 2007 By  A B CeDar - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)    `Guarantee - this book contains no nasty exercises and no boring sums!' The colourful, humorous cover opens to 192 pages, split over 12 chapters:- The beginning of the end Fibonacci and the Fogsworth Manor miracle Squares, triangles, cubes and what they get up to together Fortunes and the phobias Prime suspects The curiosity shop Magic fingers Perfectly useless numbers Chapter nine The night of mad and ghostly numbers The end of the end The final judgement written in a variety of fonts in the usual Kjartan Poskitt entertaining style, e.g.:- `Some people will find this book strange. It isn't about doing sums or fractions, it's full of stuff to make you go `ooh' and `ah' and even the occasional `uh'. Imagine answering the door to see yourself standing there. What noise would you make? Well, you'll be making that noise quite a lot as you read this book.........' Maths as you have never seen it before! Black and white illustrations/cartoons throughout.

To make it more fun it has aliens, mad professors, cowgirls and cowboys, utterly nutty pure mathematicians and a viking lady. It is full of nice images and is fun for people 7 - 77. Definately worth its price. Comment Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
