The Joy of x; A guided tour of math, from one to infinity by Steven Strogatz

"When the things on our desks are not used to surf the web, or play the games, they can be used to discover things our ancestors have never dreamt of."

Very interesting statement, ever since I have owned my first computer, it came with a box of games, I never played them, friend would come and play, but I was only interested in what the computer can do, programming Basic, the Pascal.

apt quotation..

“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein (author, aeronautical engineer, and naval officer)
