How Mathematicians Think

The book is a good introduction to mathematics for beginners, but it is somewhat repetitive. Experienced mathematicians who already understand the subject may not gain much from reading it. The arguments presented are not very original and tend to be repetitive. The core idea, which focuses on the role of ambiguity, paradoxes, and similar concepts in the development of mathematics, is reiterated throughout the 400 pages without delving deeply into the epistemological issues it raises.

At times, the arguments become generic and vague. Phrases like "subjective objectivity," "objective subjectivity," and "subjective subjectivity" reflect a questionable, self-styled zen approach that feels out of place.
