Haven't been doing much reading in last year, but am currently enjoying Milo Beckman's fun, jaunty volume "Math Without Numbers" which, if you can believe it, covers several topics in the foundations of higher and abstract mathematics... without any mention of numbers, equations, formulas, and the like! Difficult to think of another volume quite like it. Highly recommended for those wanting a simple introduction to some advanced math topics:
