A really good book but I’m having to downsize library before I’ve had chance to review. Pity.

A favorite from early childhood; for instance, the chapter on Topology at the end with an illustration of the fixed point theorem. Perhaps the photo of Sammy Eilenberg, mathematician and collector / dealer in Indian Art, lying on his couch, was a subliminal influence too.

Liked this book when young (before 1974) ( )

I cut my teeth on science-for-the-layman with the Time-Life series. Too bad it's not updated once a decade or so. Still a fun read!
