New Book: The Best Writing on Mathematics 2010

Princeton University Press just published this book: The Best Writing on Mathematics 2010.

In addition to presenting the year's most memorable writing on mathematics, this must-have anthology also includes a foreword by esteemed mathematician William Thurston and an informative introduction by Mircea Pitici. This book belongs on the shelf of anyone interested in where math has taken us--and where it's headed.

Mircea Pitici is a PhD candidate in mathematics education at Cornell University. He teaches mathematics courses and writing seminars at Cornell and Ithaca College.

I've not read it so I can't comment on it but it does look interesting.
Amazon has it.

    Great Book, and look forward to reading the 2011 edition; but, could you
    PLEASE make some copies in hardcover — especially if this is going to be an
    on-going series; and then, they would be purchased each year so to have the complete up-to-date set; what a great reference source for a library.
