+1 on DFW's book. It's odd, and really it's more a discussion on the history of modern mathematics than an in depth explanation of the concepts themselves, but it is a great read.

I wrote a short review after reading it, which you might be interested in checking out: https://faingezicht.com/articles/2017/10/27/infinity/

OT: Interesting blog you’ve got there.

I’ve seen Donella Meadows’ Thinking in Systems book recommended here a few times before, but your review really pulled the trigger for me, so thanks!
