The Infinity Heresy
While philosophers have struggled with the concept of infinity for
millenia, mathematicians claim to have tamed it. In so doing they
uncovered many curious properties such as continuity, limits,
convergent series---even different size infinities. However, like Santa
Claus and the unicorn, none of these things exist in the real universe.
See The Infinity Heresy for
