The Nothing That Is: A Natural History of Zero Hardcover - 1999
by Robert Kaplan; Ellen Kaplan (Illustrator)
In the tradition of "Longitude, " a small and engagingly written book on the history and meaning of zero--a "tour de force" of science history that takes us through the hollow circle that leads to infinity. 32 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.
