The audacity of this physics textbook defining small numbers as "small numbers" is peak academic humor. But the real gem is how it casually explains that adding 23 to 10²³ doesn't change the value, as if your bank account wouldn't notice an extra $23. Physics professors really said "your student debt is just a small number compared to Avogadro's number, so stop complaining." Statistical mechanics: where your financial problems are mathematically insignificant!
