This topic is probably the worst possible topic for Quanta.

The book, as I understand it, is about the life changing power of mathematical thinking. Quanta's mission is to make deep mathematics and mathematicians a "sexy" "human interest" topic, by making it as non-mathematical as possible while keeping a superficial veneer of mathematics.
