  This is a mathematics book written specifically for the enjoyment of non-mathematicians and those who hated math in school. The book is organized into two sections: Beauty for the Eye (shallow water for the non-swimmer); and, A Feast for the Mind (slowly getting deeper for the more adventurous). The author covers beautiful infinite series beginning with those that a young child can understand to one that even Isaac Newton, Gottfried Liebniz and the famous Bernoulli brothers could not sum.
