HUGE NUMBERS: A Story of Counting Ambitiously, from 4 1/2 to Fish 7

In ancient Egypt, to write 1,000,000, you had to draw a picture of a god. Even today, writing some numbers is beyond us. Try writing all the zeroes in a googolplex or Tree(3). Hunting down these gargantuan numbers has reshaped the way we think about math and has made an era of science and computation possible.
