The Number Pi
American Mathematical Society
Traces the thread of pi through the long history of mathematics. This book touches upon many major subjects in mathematics: geometry (of course), number theory, Galois theory, probability, transcendental numbers, analysis, and, as their crown jewel, the theory of elliptic functions, which connects many of the other subjects.
