Humble Pi

A brilliant book by a brilliant man. I watch Mr. Parker's videos on YouTube and when I saw this new book being released, I booked it even before it was out.Some seemingly casual problems had such complex reasons, who knew!!I really recommend this book to everybody

Very entertaining and informative

I am enjoying this book to the fullest as it contains some of the most laughable math errors.

Nice information packaged in an interesting manner.

Good read for anyone interested in math.

I am in no way a book reviewer. but I have read my share of books quite fondly. This one though is the one I couldn't stick to for too long. It's not a book I'd make time to read, or not want to put down once I start. It gets a little repetitive at times, like in the chapter related to bridges, as I read on, I felt I already have the knowledge or concept of the said mistake. And that gets a bit boring. If you are a hardcore maths nerd, go for it, but don't expect too much.

One of the most informative books

"A comedy of math errors" is what you can find written on the cover page of the book, which would lead you to believe that the book is about math errors. It is NOT. The entire book contains at most 5 genuine math errors (which are real gems by the way). The rest of the book is about programming/engineering/calculation errors, some of which are mildly amusing and most are quite boring. There is also a lot of forced humour in the book which does not help.
