fantastic review

i am continually amazed and astounded

An excellent exploration of extremely large numbers

Asimov is at his best explaining intricate scientific ideas in plain words, and this is a good example. In this short work, he explores phenomenally large numbers by relating them to common experiences. He uses examples from numerous fields to illustrate unexpected encounters with these large numbers. This is one of Asimov's best "light" scientific pieces.
