Translations of textbooks and popular books on math


Since mid 1990's, I have been translating popular books and textbooks from English to Polish. According to a well known anecdote, Stefan Bergman had once said I speak many languages but English the bestest. I might say practically the same; I'd just insert the words not so in front of Bergman's many, and replace (his) English with (my) Polish. If you know who Bergman was and have read, or even just browsed, one of these translations, then you will surely agree.
