About this book

Weird Maths by David Darling. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781786072641.

Aleph-null is the cardinality, or size, of the set of natural numbers, and is a ‘countably infinite cardinalâ€. Remarkably, whereas 1 + 1 = 2, 1 + aleph-null = aleph-null. The authors of this advanced maths explainer utilize plain English in an attempt to convey difficult mathematical concepts, including large numbers, higher dimensions, computation and primes, fusing historical, philosophical and anecdotal aspects of each concept with the decidedly technical. Slightly off-mint.
