I don't need this book, but curious as to its advice for other people. ;-)

I'm insanely excited for this!
And could you believe that this book has been at the library for almost exactly TWO YEARS and it looks brand new?? I know, right!

Re-reading this excellent book, inspired by a positive review in the Notices of the American Mathematical Society

Yes, I'm a bit lost. A new book started without finishing others. After my teaching trip and sickness I have had an unexpected death of a family member and I'm lost. Very short attention span. But this one seems to be going well.

I'm keeping up so far. Insightful at times.

“Abraham Wald and the missing bullet” catched my attention on the way the real mathematician thinks.

This book gets me on a philosophical level. I have tried to articulate some of these ideas to people so many times. I want to give everyone in the world this book.

I've always found maths beautiful - finding solace in the loveliness of numbers and equations. This book underscores that affection.

Not a good sign when, on the first page, you can't remember what an integral is.

This is a great, highly satisfying book. Great for recreational math lovers- has a bit of teeth without being bogged down with jargon.

I can't decide if this book is marvellously mind-blowing or if it is, in fact, driving me mad. I'll be back with a verdict! It does at least deserve more of my free time, of that I'm sure.

really interesting. the calculus part is mind blowing and i'm really starting to believe that 1+2+4+8+16...=-1

Started off with really great examples, but it became tough to read. Felt a bit tangential. I got lost and had to re read chapters often. I may come back to it but I'm putting it aside for now.

Lots of things in life can't be measure in a linear way, I think most people know that. But it's often the case that our decisions are affected by what we want things to be.
