One Two Three . . . Infinity

From the author of Creation of the Universe and My World Line comes this engaging look at the science that is anything but stuffy. With an infectious love of learning, George Gamow conveys complex concepts in simple terms that make fascinating scientific facts easily accessible to general readers. Among the topics covered are the macrocosm and the microcosm, theory of numbers, relativity of space and time, entropy, genes, atomic structure, nuclear fission, and the origin of the solar system. A celebration of science, like no other.
