Review # 1 was written on 2019-11-03 00:00:00 Jamie Ravet It is the first two chapters, which serves as introduction, where he teaches how a mathematician approaches the problem to solve and how he thinks, that were quite valuable to me. He suggests: it is much better to start from concrete and then go to more abstract things. Rest all chapters dealt with pure math which I did savored but was not that impressed. 7/10

Review # 2 was written on 2011-11-05 00:00:00 William Crawford W. W. Sawyer is one of the best -- possibly THE best -- writer of mathematics in a "popularizing" vein. He is [was, I should say] a real teacher at heart, but every inch a true mathematician who knows all of the technical nuances as well. I strongly recommend EVERYTHING this man has written.
