This book introduces mathematics in a far more enlightened manner. Ten essential lessons for the general reader with little knowledge of the subject provide lucid explanations to make it more palatable for the wary mind. The uninitiated will even begin to enjoy the unravelling of a topic that previously held them in dread. It is eloquently written and clearly presented to inspire the reader to go on to learn more. It will help to instil a true appreciation of maths as both an art and a science.
