Literate Scientist

If you ask me now what book I recommend for a broad overview of mathematics I would not hesitate to point to this latest book that I just started reading:

The Princeton Companion to Mathematics (Hardcover)

Although it is 1000 page book with two columns of text it is actually intended to be read from cover to cover! This book is now on top of my math overview recommendations which previously included these books:

• The Road to Reality
• Comprehensive Mathematics for Computer Scientists
• Mathematics: Form and Function
• All the Mathematics You Missed
• The Nature and Growth of Modern Mathematics
