OverviewMathematics has a reputation problem. Somewhere between memorizing times tables and surviving high school algebra, most people decided math was boring, difficult, or both. But the math you did in school was finger exercises. The actual math was hiding behind the curtain. This book is about pulling back that curtain. Behind it you'll find a hotel with infinite rooms that always has space for one more guest. A ball you can cut into five pieces and reassemble into two balls of the same size. A game with infinite expected payoff that no sane person would pay twenty bucks to play. Parallel lines that meet. A one-dimensional curve that fills a square. Some infinities provably larger than others. No proofs. No problem sets. No ""show your work."" Just thirty chapters of the kind of math that makes you stare at the page and say wait, WHAT? Whether you're math-curious, math-traumatized, or somewhere in between, this is the math your school never taught you - and the most surprising book about it you'll ever read.
