What are some interesting books on mathematics?

Are there books where mathematics is explained in simple (colloquial) language?

There is a series of books "Educational Manga" , not only in mathematics, but also in other disciplines.

I can recommend books of the series " Popular Lectures on Mathematics ". These are about 60 small books (about 100 pages each), designed for a student from the 8th grade and older.
Separately, I want to note the following books in the series (the selection is subjective):

  • Ouspensky - Fasting Machine
  • Uspensky - Pascal's Triangle
  • Vorobyov - Fibonacci numbers
  • Wentzel - Elements of game theory
  • Fomin - Number systems
  • Shilov - Simple gamma ;)
  • Sominsky - Method of mathematical induction
  • Golovina - Induction in geometry
  • Sable - Monte Carlo Method

The same author, but under his real name:

If you are looking for a very simple colloquial language, then I will advise the book "the spirit of number" It is written for middle and high school students. In it, mathematics is presented in a very original and understandable form.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
