How to suggest new entries to David Wells' "Book of Curious and Interesting Numbers?"

443 Views Asked by At

This book. I'm sure many here, if not most, have read it. If not, I recommend it. It's great fun.

Is the author even alive? I'd like to suggest a few entries that are not in the latest (1997) edition. For example, 0.73908513321516064... which is... nah, I won't tell. See if you can find out what this is.

I haven't found any contact information, and his name is so common any web search is maddeningly cluttered.
