- The Emperor Wears No Clothes
- Polyhedron Models", by Magnus J. Wenninger, see List of Wenninger polyhedron models
- The Feynman Lectures on Physics - where I learnt quantum mechanics
- The Tao is silent by Raymond Smullyan - I went in a book shop looking for a book on the Dao, and finding lots of books shouting The Tao of making loads of money. Then I found this one and knew it was the book for me, by a mathematicain to boot.
- Understanding Comics by Scott McCloud - absolutly excelent discussion of some complex concepts
- Gödel, Escher, Bach - yep never finished it.
- White Light (novel), Infinity and the Mind (fact) by Rudy Rucker a better book on higher infinities.
