I want to leaning something about mathematic notations, which create part of fundamental cognition of rational mind, this book helpless to my original objective but generate others, mainly help me understand the mathematical history and the people beyond that history, and the basic relation between algebra and geometry

This book didn’t contain mathematics notations in Collections, Logic, Probability, Statistics and Topology, and with too more storytelling but focus on notations, so quite disappointing for reading if you want to know more about the notation, otherwise, this book is easy to read and well down in writing

Joseph Mazur is a retired professor put all his time in mathematical writing, this is a Google Talk 10 years ago:
