Some do math because they have to.

Some do math because they think math helps them manage the world.

Some do math because they find beauty in it.

(the text is from the poem Notturno by the great Croatian poet Tin Ujević)

Not only is there no royal path to math, as Euclid said long ago (for geometry), but there is also no common path to math. The beauty of knowledge is that on the one hand, it is objective, so we can transfer it to each other, while on the other hand, it is subjective, so each individual adopts it and incorporates it into her life in her own way.

Excerpts from the first book are given on the page Math Circle 1, where the interested visitor can best identify whether that book and the books that will follow support his path of learning math.
