Review # 2 was written on 2017-03-26 00:00:00 Rod Brossman Not for the general reader (one star). This mostly about induction, mathematical and logical. Useful as an introduction to a limited readership interested in science with a strong leaning toward Mathematics. Valuable mostly in pointing out inductive fallacies. That is worth the third star. Probably suited best to high school math whizzes and college undergrads majoring or minoring in Mathematics or a closely related field such as Physics. I have a math degree (48 years ago) and found that the most interesting parts were stuff I already knew, and most of the rest not especially engaging. I did enjoy Euler's discovery of a pattern in the primes, which was new to me. It would seem that has deep implications for group theory, but this was only hinted at and not explored. Also enjoyed some of Archimedes's proofs.
