Clear, concise, and superbly written, this book reveals the beauty at the heart of mathematics, and it makes that beauty accessible to everyone. It illustrates the fundamental connection between aesthetics and mathematics by drawing analogies between axioms, applied mathematics, paintings, and symphonies. "Witty, trenchant, and provocative." -- Mathematical Association of America.
