I bought this book for my husband who has an interest in Mathematics. No idea what he thought of it

just finished this one! the first half of the book was great, and i got very into it especially on the origin of indo-european words for cardinal and ordinal numbers and counting techniques. the second half became more 'dry' and it seemed like the author was trying to make a discussion or argument but i felt it was a list of short facts almost forming a loose argument and because of this i lost interest. i was hoping he would write more like a daniel dennett where the topics are brought alive. still a good read, but not highly recommended. am taking to tonights BC meetup so it can find another reader!
