The Mathematical ExperienceThe Mathematical Experience

Amazon.com Review
We tend to think of mathematics as uniquely rigorous, and of mathematicians as supremely smart. In his introduction to The Mathematical Experience, Gian-Carlo Rota notes that instead, "a mathematician's work is mostly a tangle of guesswork, analogy, wishful thinking and frustration, and proof ... is more often than not a way of making sure that our minds are not playing tricks." Philip Davis and Reuben Hersh discuss everything from the nature of proof to the Euclid myth, and mathematical aesthetics to non-Cantorian set theory.

Shorter Slang Dictionary
Product Description:
Long before Orwell mourned the corruption of the English language, his mother tongue was fast becoming a motley one, absorbing new colloquialisms by the minute. The Shorter Slang Dictionary, the latest compilation of English slang from freelance lexicographer Rosalind Fergusson, is proof that even colloquial English has achieved a certain degree of lexicographical legitimacy in the undiscriminating 20th century.
