I loved loved loved this book. It is a brilliant book and takes you through the best tour of pure mathematics ever! I'm so glad I found this book! and I've already listened to it twice on my commutes to work. What a joy!

I’m not a math teacher nor am I someone with a math degree. I loved math as a young student to the point of considering a career in the field. I decided to give this book a try, not knowing what to expect, and being a few years removed from math classes/and substantial exposure to math. But this was truly a phenomenal read! The language used was accesible to a variety of readers, the level of detail allowed for more than just definitions but not so much information as to be overwhelming, and overall it was just a well-written book. I’d recommend to anyone wanting to read some easy non-fiction that’s interesting and fun.

Interesting overview of abstract math topics, and the illustrations were helpful.
