Title: I've given this away more than any other book!
Review: I have several friends who ask about good math books. For more sophisticated folks, I recommend Journey through Genius: The Great Theorems of Mathematics but for most, Gower's book is the one I suggest by far the most. (BTW: Check out his blog and naturally the Companion).Why? The two difficulties most non-mathy folks have are infinity (that there are many) and high dimensionality.Gowers in particular does a superb job of leading one through the understanding of a 5D "unit cube", using cartesian 5-tuple (list of 5 numbers) to discover the properties of the cube.
