4.0

Excellent work of popular mathematics. Singh manages the difficult task of explaining one of the most famous and complicated theorems in history in clear and lucid prose. He neither patronises his audience or dumbs down, and somehow manages to make number theory (mostly) clear even to someone like me, who has long since forgotten everything that Further Calculus ever taught her. If you've got even the most glancing interest in the subject, this is well worth a read.

An thriller about the history of mathematics and the search for an answer of a three hundred years old riddle. Written in a way which makes mathematics approachable and interesting. I wish my math teachers would have brought up new math problems in a way like it is in this book.
