Math is great! discussion

Hello all beautiful mathemagicians ! !

Lets get this group up and running by making some noise! Lets get those tiny grey cells ticking , just a bit , not too much :-)

Why not begin off by deciding on a book for GRing for May 16 .

We could begin off with something really light and fun to get us into the mould .

Please drop in your suggestions and viola ! soon we would be GRing for May 2016 .

Thanks

Happy mathemagicing :-)

Thanks for the suggestion Ashley . Of course , recreational maths is as much an integral part of math .

Thanks Peter for the wonderful suggestions . I have been myself thinking of "Infinitesimal " for quite some time . Lets wait for few more days for more suggestions . As of now , Infinitesimal seems a very good bet for the month . :-)

Hello, I'm new to Goodreads Groups and am delighted to be part of this group. As a mathematician who recently published a "math novel" (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...), I look forward to being part of the discussions and learning from all of you.
