Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
First published in 1937 and reprinted several times since, Hogben's book took everybody's worst subject and explained it in a way that made it comprehensible to the average person. For this edition, the 98-year-old author updates the text and adds new illustrations. A premiere title for both academic and public libraries.

H. G. Wells
A great book, a book of first-class importance.
