Άσχετο, αλλά θα συνέστηνα ανεπιφύλακτα αυτό το βιβλίο. Είναι πραγματικά fun και easy read - πάντα το διάβαζα στην τουαλέτα πριν την διάδοση των κινητών.
Άλλα δυστυχώς, δεν περιέχει την Σταθερά ΚΚΕ.
The first thing that came to mind was Counterexamples in Analysis. This book will stretch your intuition, but it may be a little advanced if you've only taken into to analysis. Maybe not though.
The next thing that came to mind were the books Curious and Interesting Numbers, and Curious and Interesting Mathematics. These are just fun to browse through.
Finally, Keith Devlin has a number of books which are approachable and filled with interesting concepts and math.
The Penguin Dictionary of Curious and Interesting Numbers
There is a matching "Curious and Interesting Geometry" which I like even better, but it seems difficult to find at a sensible price.
The history of mathematics is really fascinating. Amicable numbers are nice. No recreational mathematician should be without curious and interesting numbers.
