### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Not a math book; more a philosophy of math book, but still useful.
  

*by H***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2017*

This book will *not* teach you calculus. But if, as I was, you are returning to the calculus after decades of absence, it *can* give you some of the underlying concepts behind the usual sequence of steps that are used to teach calculus: instantaneity, limits, differentiation, anti-differential -> integration, and so on. The downside is the author's purple prose, which can be very annoying until you learn how to tune it out: how to jump over the florid passages to get to the next concrete conceptual treatment. It's kind of like getting across boggy ground by jumping from high ground to high ground.I *must* not however that I have both the paperback and the Kindle version, and I note that the Kindle version has some UNFORTUNATE mis-transcriptions of the text. If you're really following the harder mathematical material, you may easily fail to spot where a variable is missing or an integration or function symbol has been translated to something completely different. I cannot therefore recommend the Kindle version.Still: if you are learning the calculus from a disciplined math text, this book can prove to be a very useful conceptual guide to what might be a little dry in the textbook. But remember: it is *not* a book for learning the calculus in detail.

    Non mathematicians versed in calculus andmay have missed the beautiful insightful dephs found here.
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2018*

Berlinski loves beauty in the world and in mathematics. He bestows to the appreciative reader the realization that continuity is the result of humans existing as macroscopic conscious  entities with gross macroscopic sensations  in midst of a physical world consisting of very small constituents such as molecules and atoms. Herein the conflict between discrete numbers( a product of our cognition) and our ( coarse ) perception of continuity.

    An in-depth history of the Calculus
  

*by A***A on Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2020*

Professor Berlinski takes us on a tour of numbers, from from the Abacus and integers to real, to imaginary numbers, thru algebra, thru Trigonometry to Calculus.  The thought, and the planning, behind this book is almost overwhelming.I took advanced algebra, Trig and Calculus, in college, during the late Sixties.  I haven’t torched, or looked at, the stuff in decades, but Berlinski is not only clear thinking about presenting the background numbers theory, he’s also fun to read.  With some  pencil work on my own, I am able to follow him.  That gives me a good feeling about myself—I’m in my late seventies.This book is a great read for a modern student considering a career in mathematics.  All the background they need is there.  Just read, and try some pencil work.  It’s fun.
