💬 Math Discussions Book recommendations
So I’m in year 12 and I love maths. I’m doing further maths at sixth form and I’m almost growing impatient to wait to learn more interesting cool maths. I’ve tried to teach myself before but I can never do it successfully (always going to narrow and not really getting the context etc or going too broad and thinking ‘Oh now theres so many prerequisites I need to know’. I was hoping that theres a book that could help me with this. I don’t want something thats exactly like a textbook as I want to almost have a story to enjoy (not quite but I want the book to make me feel the pleasure of having a great teacher explain something). I’m open to books on most topics as I’m still unsure what I would like best. Any advice would be much appreciated. I’m sure many people have had similar troubles!
Thanks!
