Review Quotes:
Praise for Lillian Lieber and Infinity
"The interpolations tying mathematics into human life and thought are brilliantly clear."--Booklist
"Her presentation...is conversational and humorous, and should help to simplify some complex concepts."--Kirkus
"Another excellent book for the lay reader of mathematics...In explaining [infinity], the author introduces the reader to a good many other mathematical terms and concepts that seem unintelligible in a formal text but are much less formidable when presented in the author's individual and very readable style."--Library Journal
"Mrs. Lieber, in this text illustrated by her husband, Hugh Gray Lieber, has tackled the formidable task of explaining infinity in simple terms, in short line, short sentence technique popularized by her in The Education of T.C. MITS."--Chicago Sunday Tribune
