Okay, I am wrestling with an idea for a book with "One" in the title, to follow "Three Windows" and "Two Magicians." I am actually trying to write a book to order to please the numerically--um--focussed among my readership. If this runs true to form, it will either stop dead or gradually peter out halfway through. So wish me an uncharacteristic burst of creativity.

The one after this will *not* feature "Zero" in the title, nor will I be exploring the magical world of fractions or negative numbers. I may never use a number in the title again (apart from, obviously, That Nyrond One). Just to let you know.

What about imaginary numbers? (See also http://xkcd.com/410/)

Sorry, I didn't mean to request one specially written with that title!

(If you want a book with an imaginary number, anything with 'i' counts. Er, if imaginary numbers are countable...)

The rational multiples of i are. (For the same reason that the rational multiples of 1 are. - See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countable_set)

There can be only one. :-)

Well, let's see now. Three windows plus two magicians = One Levitation

I wish you unwonted creativity and tenacity. And perhaps it will be Mrs Curbinand who speaks to you?

Hey - I just realised: look at your journal title!!!!
