"Devlin's choice of material is excellent, and he is to be praised for the clarity and accuracy with which he presents it." -- Martin Gardner, New York Review of Books (of the first ed.)

"Devlin makes the beauty of math apparent, the most esoteric of concepts sing. If more scientists wrote with Devlin's simplicity and feeling, the world would be a much more informed place." -- Atlanta Journal-Constitution
