Book Review: Bug Eyed Numbers
Summary: 3 Stars
Earls zapped me a pdf of this for review when I contacted him about some experimental math matters. I can say that the writing is vivid, even muscular. Reminiscent of 30s and 40s bug eyed monster sci fi, but with irony attached, apparently. Hope so, anyway. It was a surprisingly quick read, because it is 60 or 70 percent digits. Even when one understands what they signify, the best thing to do is to scroll through them quickly and grab the next piece of prose, it seems to me. I suspect this book is an excuse to get certain numerical observations onto the record in a very public venue. It's a clever strategy for publicizing one's research and the pill is coated with some fairly entertaining early 20th century sci fi sugar.
