The Nothing That Is: A Natural History of Zero Paperback - 2000
by Robert Kaplan; Ellen Kaplan (Illustrator)
For math professor Kaplan, the history of zero is a lens for looking not only into the evolution of mathematics but into very nature of human thought. "Where did the familiar hollow circle that we use to denote zero come from? That's a story fraught with mystery, and Mr. Kaplan tells it well".--"Wall Street Journal". 38 illustrations.
First line
Zero began its career as two wedges pressed into a wet lump of clay, in the days when a superb piece of mental engineering gave us the art of counting.
