From the publisher

For many years Serge Lang has given talks to undergraduates on selected items in mathematics which could be extracted at a level understandable by students who have had calculus. Written in a conversational tone, Lang now presents a collection of those talks as a book. The talks could be given by faculty, but even better, they may be given by students in seminars run by the students themselves.

First line

I don't know any subject other than number theory where one can give a talk on mathematics centered around major unsolved problems, but understandable with almost no background in mathematics.
