Numbers and the World: Essays on Math and Beyond - Miscellaneous Book Series
Mumford, David, QC
Presents a collection of essays written by a distinguished mathematician with a very long and successful career as a researcher and educator. The author writes about everything he found exciting about maths, its history, and its connections with art, and about how to explain it when so many smart people (and children) are turned off by it.
