Book Introduction
*60th Youth Recommended Books*

Unlike other math books, it doesn't force you to study math by just throwing in math formulas.
If we simply follow the lives of mathematicians, we will find hidden there the mathematical formulas that we have been curious about.
Even if you don't try to memorize it, Eratosthenes will teach you how to find 'prime numbers', and Pascal will teach you 'the sum of the interior angles of a triangle'.
By examining the lives of individual mathematicians, we can see the history of mathematics at a glance, how it has developed, and understand the role mathematics plays in our lives.
