"Arthur Benjamin . . . joyfully shows you how to make nature's numbers dance." -- Bill Nye (the science guy)
The Magic of Math is the math book you wish you had in school.

Known throughout the world as the "mathemagician," Arthur Benjamin mixes mathematics and magic to make the subject fun, attractive, and easy to understand for math fan and math-phobic alike.
