What are your all-time non-fiction selections? I'm weary of memoirs but maybe I'm missing out on a great one??? I love Patrick Radden Keefe and am not afraid of a 600+ page Guns of August-type moment either, please and thank you.

This is a popular math book that is actually mostly about math. More than Cantor, his life and times, it’s about the things Cantor said and discovered. It’s intelligible to non-mathematicians, and full of lucid, beautiful and true writing about a really beautiful and true subject.

Artsy!
