The Music of the Primes
Marcus du Sautoy
Du Sautoy on the Riemann hypothesis, the primes, and a century and a half of failure to prove it.
Why you should read this
A history of the search for a pattern in the distribution of prime numbers, centered on Riemann's still-unproven hypothesis about where the primes fall. Best for readers who want the human story behind an unsolved problem rather than the underlying complex analysis.
