Summary: A great journey through mathematics
Review: I enjoyed this treatment of the history of mathematics, and, in particular, I liked the sections on Islamic mathematics and Cantor's theories on infinity. The book is quite thought-provoking, and I recommend it highly.

Summary: Sometimes great, sometimes not
Review: The book was a good but very, very basic ntroduction to mathematics, including the areas of basic research. The best part is at the end, discussing mathematics, cultural theory and where they intersect. Not something you'd EVER find in a classical math text.
