I find good popular books on higher mathematics difficult to come by. A nice exception is the trilogy written by Avner Ash and Robert Groß:
Elliptic Tales, Fearless Symmetry and Summing it up (in my order of preference)
- cjauvin 7mo agoSorry for the stupid question but is Elliptic Tales your favorite or is it Summing it up?
- nhatcher 7mo agoElliptic Tales, but maybe it is because I read it first

- Guestmodinfo 7mo agoMir titles is a feeling. It's nostalgia. It's childhood for many including me. The books are excellent written by some of the finest of their times talking to the lowest highschool level student or even a child and making him or her understand fully what all is going on. Indians love Mir. My favorite author is Landsberg. He is in Mir titles. He got defeated by our main man C V Raman by 2 weeks to publish the same research (independently) which got C V Raman the only Physics Nobel Prize for India.
