Let it just be said I'm one of /those/ people, who upon their first encounter with basic maths in primary school knew they were staring in the eye of their lifelong arch enemy, and who feel their pulse in their throats when they have to give change for £3.65 from a fiver. And I know I'm not the first or the last of /those/ people who loved this book - not only because it taught me new things, or because it showed me quirky facts about everyday life that are easy enough for me to remember and later use for impressing friends, but above all because it never made me feel stupid or like I don't belong into the smart club. This is maths that maybe not everybody can do, but that everybody can enjoy.
