Succinct yet powerful. The book strikes a perfect balance between depth and breadth. Math can be regarded as an impressionistic view of the physical world, which makes the logical investigation possible. Thus focus on what it does (e.g. rules, properties, axioms) and how well it does (consistency) rather than wonder what it is (philosophically).10-06
"While we may greatly admire a mathematician who discovers a beautiful proof, the human story behind the discovery eventually fade away and it is, in the end, the mathematics itself that delight us."11-28
