One of the blogs I've started reading recently is Coctail Party Physics: Physics with a Twist, which, today, has a really interesting post, "To Infinity and Beyond" about Zeno's Paradox, Calculus, the movie "I.Q.," Newton, Leibniz, and more. I majored in math, but we almost never learned any of the history behind it (which, looking back, is rather surprising). Check it out!
