- 零数学背景的初学者也能轻松顺畅地读懂
- 趣味科普让数学概念变得引人入胜且易懂
许多人在高中学过数学，之后很快就忘得一干二净。但无论我们是否意识到，数学始终在我们的生活中发挥着作用。在 The Joy of x 一书中，Steven Strogatz 基于其在 New York Times 上的热门专栏进行拓展，以机智幽默、深刻洞察和精妙图解，循循善诱、清晰明了地解释了数学的伟大思想。无论是阐释翻转床垫的最佳频率以最大化使用寿命，解释 Google 如何在互联网上进行搜索，还是确定在安定下来之前应该与多少人约会，Strogatz 都展现了数学如何与生活的方方

……复分析：《Visual Complex Analysis》- 证明书写：Jay Cummings 的《Proofs: A Long Form Textbook》- 抽象代数：Dummit-Foote 的书。喜欢的话可以看前几章。___ 科普类：1. Steven Strogatz 的《The Joy of X》 2. Simon Singh 的《Fermat's Enigma》（除了抽象代数那本，这里所有的书我都极力推荐）
…Complex Analysis: Visual Complex Analysis - Writing proofs: Proofs: A Long Form Textbook by Jay Cummings - Abstract Algebra: Dummit-Foote book. First few chapters if you like. ___ Pop-Sci: 1. The Joy of X by Steven Strogatz 2. Fermat's Enigma by Simon Singh (All this books except AA are very highly recommended by me)
- Ben Orlin 的《Math with Bad Drawings》- Steven Strogatz 的《Infinite Powers》和《The Joy of X》- Hofstadter 的《Godel, Escher, Bach》（避开了教材，毕竟每个人的体验因人而异，能体会到多少乐趣也取决于读者的水平。）
- Math with Bad Drawings by Ben Orlin - Infinite Powers and The Joy of X by Steven Strogatz - Godel, Escher, Bach by Hofstadter (Avoiding text books as one's mileage might vary, and having fun depends on the readers' levels as well.)
