Math Reading Challenge discussion

I've been wanting to tackle An Illustrated Theory of Numbers since going to an interesting talk by the author about how he put the book together. I can also recommend Prime Numbers and the Riemann Hypothesis as a nice introduction, at several different levels, to the Riemann hypothesis.

Hi -- this is Marty, the author of An Illustrated Theory of Numbers. I'll be delighted to answer questions and participate in discussions about the book. A few resources:

1. The book has a webpage with posted errata and related programming tutorials (an introduction to Python, focused on number theory). Go to http://illustratedtheoryofnumbers.com/ for more.

2. The book has a Facebook page. It's not so active, but you can follow it at https://www.facebook.com/IllustratedT...

3. If you need it, you can find my email pretty easily. My name is Marty Weissman and I'm a professor at UC Santa Cruz. Drop a note if you have questions just for me, find new errata, etc. Of course, goodreads is the place to continue public discussion.

The book Prime Numbers and the Riemann Hypothesis is great too!

Thanks for the comment. I like the idea! If there is interest in doing this challenge in later years, I'm planning on picking different areas of math. I picked number theory this year because I thought it made a nice pair with "a book with a number in the title."

I'm interested in reading "Elliptic Tales" -- it looks like a nice little pop math introduction to elliptic curves.
