Another nice email from a reader of The Book of Numbers:

I just wanted to say that I enjoyed reading your book, The Book of Numbers. I am a mathematics major and just found the entire history of numbers to be fascinating. I was very pleased to read a book that focused just on numbers and didn't dive too deep into the number theory or any other type of mathematics. I also enjoyed how you, towards the end, started to meld physics into the book, because the two subjects, I think, correlate very well.

...I just want to emphasize how much I enjoyed the read. I finished the book in about 3 hours because I just could not put it down.
