About the Author

Geschichte des Buches Was mich zur Entstehung dieses Buches veranlasst hat, hat eigentlich einen sehr humoristischen Hintergrund. Ich wusste lange nicht dass diese Zahlen (0123456789), die wir überall nutzen, arabische Zahlen sind. In meinem Heimatland wurden diese Zahlen immer als "europäisch" bezeichnet.
