Book

Continuing my assault on math popularizations, I finished "Einstein's Heroes: Imagining the World through the Language of Mathematics" by Robyn Arianrhod. Very above average, and gave me a new hero through her descriptions of James Clerk Maxwell. I liked that this book had a point of view instead of just a straight depiction of the facts, and that it was also not afraid of a few equations.
