Math Without Numbers
Math Without Numbers is an illustrated, lucidly written guide to nothing less than the three fields of inquiry at the highest level of mathematical thinking. This book is a spaceship taking you to a magical world of unerring truth and endless adventure. It is a kind of intellectual exercise that most grown-ups don't think they can handle. But what awaits readers is an incredibly fun and freewheeling tour of the inimitable joys of math and how miraculously it can unlock the secrets of the universe. And the only numbers in the book are the page numbers. So many popularizations of math have dwelt on numbers like pi or zero or infinity. This book goes well beyond to show why math is really just pattern recognition and ultimately how math keeps on surprising us with unexpected, useful connections to the real world.
