Beautiful Geometry by Eli MaorMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
A must read for all the Maths lovers not necessarily for the Mathematicians who could probably know all that is there in the book and more.
The book covers a surprising list of theorems (in layman’s words) and explains the proofs for each of them. It also covers the most beautiful formula on earth involving “e”, “pi”, “root i”, 1 and 0. And the best part is that each of the theorems is accompanied by art based on the theorem which is even more wonderful.
The proofs are a surprise for most of the non-mathematicians and it is indeed a wonder on how these were derived and proved in the ancient times.
Wish they make this is at least a reading material in the schools and if not at least in the colleges.
A must read.
