Posting that opinion in this thread was bound to generate confusion, but I get your point. That's usually called divulgation or public awareness. The problem is that it's often quite hard to do, because most practitioners only understand the concepts in terms of that mathematical language, and it's quite hard to translate them, since you can't easily put yourself in the shoes of someone who doesn't understand that language.

Also, it's not clear that there's any point in doing so; say you can explain a very technical concept to a layman using terms and concepts that don't require two years of study. Then what? What is that person supposed to do with that knowledge, if they lack the mental tools to apply it? It becomes little more than trivia, no?

Still, there are some attempts: http://math.stackexchange.com/questions/275/best-maths-books...
