Journey through Genius: The Great Theorems of Mathematics

[ 5.0 stars ] "For those who enjoy Math history, this book is fascinating. It reads like a novel with bits of history in discovery of the pieces of math laws and progressions. Chapter two on Euclid's proof of the Pythagorean Theorem is priceless and worth the price of the book alone. It shows how those with true math genius arrived at conclusions without having the math laws and rules used today. How those ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "This is not a gee-whiz book that gushes about mathematics without showing the equations.The author provides a lively history of some very interesting discoveries in mathematics. He does not shy away from using mathematical symbols and equations to explain the reasoning that led to the discoveries. Because he uses modern math symbology, the explanations are clear and understandable for any reader ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "I absolutely loved this book. While it slowed down at a few places, it was a page turner in quite a few other spots. It got really interesting after Newton stepped in. If you can see beauty in Mathematics, you will find this book awesome.There are couple of things to watch out for if anyone plans to use it as a reference. The edition I had was a bit dated, and some of the most challenging problems ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 3.0 stars ] "Dunham gives a whirlwind tour of the history of mathematics, stopping along the way to consider 12 great theorems and their proofs. The journey is interesting, but does require that you remember a bit more than just the basics of high school algebra. I discovered that my algebra II skills are apparently a bit rusty (and calculus skills non-existent) so I was adrift through some of the proofs in ..." Courtesy by Amazon
