We all encounter numbers hundreds of times a day. This is a collection of some of the most peculiar, bizarre, shocking, or hilarious numbers we could find. They are meant to make you think, to challenge your assumptions (and your credulity), to make you laugh, to move you to action, or simply to entertain. This book also offers a glimpse into the history of humanity’s fascination with numbers and how our relationship with them ultimately reveals how we relate to each other and our world.
