“Matt Parker makes mathematics interesting by making it funny. In this book, he pokes fun at people who’ve made silly mathematical mistakes but, at the same time, he also looks at some issues that are quite serious: bridges collapsing and killing people, for example. It’s a great book. As far as I know, it’s the first math book that’s ever been a number one bestseller.” Read more...
