Customer Reviews
Good Dictionary - Rated This book is really a glorified mathematical dictionary specifically on number theory and prime numbers in particular. This is actually not obvious by reading the book cover. It's a good book to provide explanations and further information on subjects you may come across when reading other books on number theory. However on it's own, it's not really well suited as a teaching book due to it's layout. Excellent Book - Rated A lot is there to share with friends and get excited about human ventures. Brilliant - Rated If you have read any of David Wells' "Curious and Interesting..." books you'll know roughly what to expect. This is a great book for dipping into. I thought I knew lots about primes, but there's so much here to grab your interest. In addition to the formal stuff, there's lots of bits and bobs that are just there for amusement. I never knew that there was a definition for 'Sexy Numbers', but they are in here. Just like his other books, you'll find yourself dipping in frequently. Absolutely brilliant.
