Specifically designed with non-specialist general readers in mind, The Math Explorer provides a 'walking tour' to math which is geared to no particular knowledge base, and offers creative and fun coverages of all the basics, from real and imaginary numbers to vectors, chance and more. History weaves through the math focus and provides a satisfying diverse tone lending to browsing and even enjoyment. Highly recommended, especially for math-allergic adults!
