Book News...


Will just end the week with a few book notes:

1.  John McGowan reviewed Barbara Oakley's "A Mind for Numbers" ('good not great') here:

2.  Peter Woit reviewed a new book, "Mathematics Without Apologies" that I hope to read and review in the future (looks quite interesting and different, leafing through it):
