You Wouldn't Want to Live Without Math! (Library Edition)

You Wouldn''t Want to Live Without.

It''s hard to imagine what life would be like today without the inventions and natural phenomena we take for granted, from the bees that pollinate our crops to the numbers that allow us to calculate and build computers. Combining history with science, these titles explore how animals, abstract concepts, and even boogers have transformed the world!

Math: Early number systems didn''t have a symbol for zero used at the end of a number, which made it hard to tell numbers like 6 and 60 apart.
