this one has been a good read so far, but it is quite mind bending, I only read like a half chapter at a time slowly, and then I have to spend some time contemplating.
from geometry to cosmology, exercises your mind into visualizing the shape of the universe.
Not the most technical — but really influenced how I thought about mathematics.
