From the Back Cover

"A veritable potpourri of mathematical factoids, Single Digits will provide you with conversational ammunition for all manner of nerdy gatherings."--Henry Reich, creator of MinutePhysics and MinuteEarth

"Dispensing incisive, brief expositions of mathematical observations, facts, theorems, proofs, conjectures, and open problems, this cornucopia of a book ranges through geometry, number theory, combinatorics, topology, and many other areas. From the elegantly elementary to the sublimely difficult, each of its short sections is liable to stimulate an eager search for further enlightenment, whether from the internet, the library, or your own mind."--Avner Ash, coauthor of Elliptic Tales

"A survey of mathematical gems, ancient and modern, this book is certain to arouse the curiosity of anyone with even a passing interest in mathematics. Chamberland's clear explanations provide an enticing introduction to each topic and will make you want to learn more."--Jamie Pommersheim, coauthor of Number Theory

"This book describes properties associated with the numbers one to nine and connects important areas of mathematics, including number theory, geometry, chaos theory, and applied mathematics. Single Digits is filled with nuggets of mathematical information, compelling topics, and interesting ideas for anyone curious about the subject."--Lee Fothergill, Mount Saint Mary College

"A celebration of small numbers, Single Digits presents mathematical vignettes organized by their connection to single nonzero digits. Progressing from the elementary to the more elaborate, Chamberland brings together some really interesting mathematics, and his well-told stories will intrigue a general, knowledgeable audience."--Jennifer Quinn, University of Washington, Tacoma
