Dear Tanya Khovanova, 
 
I thought you might think this is fun -- Sometimes a cover is more than just a cover, and that is the case with Paul Nahin’s new book Number-Crunching. Look at the numbers exploding out of our hero’s fists – notice anything familiar?
 
It turns out that designer Dimitri Karetnikov hid 12 numbers that are significant to the Press, mathematics, and history in those fists. Visit the PUP Web site or the facebook page for Number-Crunching and leave your best guesses.
