Review


"There are a handful of really wonderful books that can introduce a young high-school student to the beauty of mathematics. This is definitely one of them. Besides,this book is probably going to be known as the first book written by one of the best mathematicians of the twenty-first century."-- The Mathematical Asociation of America
