One Two Three Infinity - Facts And Speculation Of Science

One Two Three... Infinity – Facts and Speculation of Science (1962) by George Gamow – Macmillan Press
Offered by Crappy Old Books – where genius meets grubby.

Ever wondered how to explain the universe with stick figures and jokes? In One Two Three... Infinity, nuclear physicist and comic genius George Gamow tackles everything from atoms to galaxies, the fourth dimension to the shape of space – all with the breezy confidence of a man who’s both brilliant and slightly unhinged. First published in 1947 and reprinted endlessly (this one’s the 1962 Macmillan edition), it’s a wild, charming ride through the playground of science.

This copy? Well-loved and well-worn, with possibly a few pages that have travelled through time—or at least a student flat. May include bonus doodles and the faint aroma of cold coffee.

Crappy Old Books – Enlightenment, with rough edges.

Condition is fairly good, with a small ding to the back top outer corner, but hardly significant.
