If you like math and design, pick this book up.

It's nerd-tastic.

(The lovely images and diagrams are just an added bonus)

Yet another essential volume for a graphic designer's library. It's small, it's quick, it's priceless.

I generally dislike graphic design books. They tend to be written by knowledgeable folks who love reading their own incoherent words (coughRANDcough). Kimberly Elan's books--Grid Systems being another--are worth every penny you pay for them as far as I'm concerned.
