Title: OK, But Not the Best Book on Fermat's Last Theorem
Product review: I accidentally read this instead of the book my brother really recommended to me, Fermat's Enigma, by Simon Singh. (q.v.) I subsequently read Singh's book, and it is MUCH better than Aczel's. This book tells the story, but with a bland high school textbook style, and with too much emphasis on the gossipy politics involved. If you are, like me, a non-mathematician, I think you will enjoy the Singh book (which is based on the popular BBC TV special about FLT) much more than this one.
