Review # 1 was written on 2020-01-21 00:00:00 Lori Zennario Read this book in my college math class. It is very simplistic and some of the jokes are horrendous. But, for a math book, it is quite enjoyable. It points out all of the creative and enjoyable parts of mathematics rather than the scary algebraic and calculus-y parts.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-11-23 00:00:00 Michael Lockhart This is another of my fav books on math that I've read this year. Assuming a minimal set of prerequisites (probably just that you know English and know how to count), this book introduces you to a variety of topics ranging from number theory, 2D and 3D geometry, topology, to chaos theory, probability and statistics, and more importantly, HOW THEY RELATE AND APPLY TO THE REAL WORLD. The complexity is fairly minimal; they emphasize more on making you think better and having fun during the process rather than making you manipulate complicated notation and jargon. The chapters are all more or less self-contained, so you can pick and start from a chapter that suits your tastes. (A word of warning though - it's a huge book, nearly a thousand pages long. Took me nearly 11 months to finish it. 8, perhaps, if you exclude the days I didn't read it.)
