The author explores the wild and woolly world of the infinitely large and the infinitely small Along the way Cheng considers weighty questions like why some numbers are uncountable or why infinity plus one is not the same as one plus infinity
For example she compares the power of mathematicians to that of a spoiled child who must face the consequences of asking for and promptly being eaten by a pet lion be careful what you wish for is the valuable lesson Cheng makes mathematics seem so fun I can imagine the book inspiring many young readers to pursue careers in the field All in all a book as entertaining as the works of Lewis Carroll
