    general. If I had to pick one Kline s is probably the best single volume biographies of Mathematicians. Cardano The Gambling Scholar, Oystein Ore.  
    http://math.bu.edu/INDIVIDUAL/jeffs/biblio.html
    
    Extractions: Caveat: This is neither exhaustive nor unbiased. Primarily, it consists of books that I have read that I will vouch have some value (even if the value is entertainment, as in Bell's book). Most of the following books are aimed at the professional non-mathematician (i.e., someone to whom the land of mathematics is an interesting place to visit, but you wouldn't want to live there). A note about the ratings: Again, no claim of objectivity is made. However, the following rating system is fairly objective, as it indicates the amount of mathematical background necessary to truly understand the information contained: Comprehensible with even the most basic mathematics background. Some mathematics, but nothing too extreme; if you can recognize the "!" symbol, you should be OK. A bit more difficult, though a year's worth of calculus or so should give you enough background to appreciate it; you can "blip" over the scarier mathematics. Tough stuff. Best suited for math majors, or people who are really interested in the subject.
