Description: yet we take it for granted that your ears can capture that infinitesimal signal and use it to signal to the brain the full range of auditory the human voice, music, the natural world. How does your ear do that? And the answer to that

Stacey D'Erasmo

Writers and musicians are very similar in that the chances of making a life in either field are so infinitesimal. And once you're in, the chances of staying viable are difficult. But there is something incredibly different about performing in front of a live audience, as opposed to sitting at your desk typing.

American Novelist

Jay Griffiths

Clearly, many branches of science need an exquisite precision of timekeeping and the infinitesimal decimals of calibration, so space launches, for example, are not scheduled for leap-second dates. But society as a whole neither needs that obsessive time measurement nor is well served by it.

English Scientist

Om Malik

People pay little attention to banner ads - in fact, everyone dislikes them - and that leads to infinitesimally small click-through rates that make marketers unhappy.

Indian Writer

Rainer Weiss

You think Earth's gravity is really something when you're climbing the stairs. But, as far as physics goes, it is a pipsqueak, infinitesimal, tiny little effect.

American Physicist

Sidney Altman

It was from them that I learned that hard work in stable surroundings could yield rewards, even if only in infinitesimally small increments.

Canadian Scientist

Oliver Tambo

The violence associated with the A.N.C. is minimal, infinitesimal next to the violence of the apartheid regime.
