From a review by David Berlinski, author of "A Tour of Calculus": "In this subtle, interesting and intelligent book, Devlin argues that mathematics is a great artistic triumph of the race, one made possible by an innate human ability. Those who have long regarded mathematics as something rather like cauliflower in being at once nourishing and inedible should read what Devlin has to say. If nothing else, they will encounter an old friend." -- with a bonus offer--; .
