Looks very interesting!

Another suggestion: I'm currently working through "Creating Symmetry" (http://press.princeton.edu/titles/10435.html) which is a very readable maths text and one that involves some gorgeous images.

The author calls is a postmodern maths book, and says "Postmodern books are situated in time and place, taking into account the identities of both reader and author. Here I am, writing to reach you; please join me." The world needs more postmodern maths books.
