I read parts of these books before but never finished them. They are meant to be read in this order :
"Creative mathematicians seldom write for outsiders, but when they do, they usually do it well. Jerry King is no exception." — Nature
"Touch[es] the mathematical grandeur that the first geometers contemplated." — Publishers Weekly
"Witty, trenchant, and provocative." — Mathematical Association of America
^first book is easier reading the second one is tougher to digest.
