David Kaiser’s Reviews > Geometry of Grief: Reflections on Mathematics, Loss, and Life > Status Update

Completed chapter two "Grief", and as others have pointed out, it is based quite a bit on personal memories of the author, and notably light in scientific explanation. Having said that, I believe most readers should read it and not skip.

The first chapter is a very compressed review of geometric principles, but it is very worth reading from the start. The author is introducing aspects of geometry (planes, infinity, fractals, etc) which will be related to how we grieve, in following chapters.
