    What Hacker News says

    1. tfontDec 2014
      This is a beautiful post! I'm loving what I am reading and the suggestions seem quite insightful :]

      I am not sure if any of the following books were recommendation already:

      - Carl B. Boyer - A History of Mathematics - William Dunham - Journey Through Genius - Philip J. Davi & Reuben Hersh - The Mathematical Experience - Martin Aigner & Günter M. Ziegler - Proofs from the Book - Imre Lakatos - Proofs and Refutations - Robert M. Young - Excursions in Calculus: An Interplay of the Continuous and the Discrete - Courant & Robbins - What is Mathematics? - George Pólya - How to Solve It - Morris Kline - Kline’s Mathematics: The Loss of Certainty

      More or less a general deep understanding of Mathematics but will definitely give you a boost in a direction that you will favor.

      Morris Kline's book "Calculus: An Intuitive and Practical Approach" is still in print. I prefer the paper version because the Kindle version has many formatting problems.
