Mathematical Fiction list?

[edit]

When I was reorganizing my library, I naturally put Surreal Numbers and Flatland together under Mathematical Fiction. Does anyone have any ideas what other books belong grouped there? I eventually shelved them with Martin Gardner's various puzzle books like Penrose Tiles to Trapdoor Ciphers, but Gardner's books really feel like they are another category.Naraht (talk) 18:32, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you like mathematical fiction, you may want to check out the MathFiction page. On Wikipedia, there is a category page on Mathematics fiction books. --Mark viking (talk) 19:05, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
