* 1089 and All That by Acheson - NOT ON LIBGEN - The very best introduction to math. This is an amazing little book that gives you a glimpse of practically every feature of math and is fantastically written and very entertaining.
* Indra’s Pearls by Mumford -  idea was to explain a piece of completely grown-up, cutting-edge mathematics but assuming you didn’t touch mathematics after school. There’s no book like it — beautifully written, beautifully illustrated, beautifully made.
* Measurement by Lockhart - If you’re struggling with the school curriculum essentially covers all of school mathematics (including calculus) after arithmetic
* Mathematics: Its Content, Methods, and Meaning - Once you get interested in the university curriculum. it covers an entire undergraduate mathematics degree — yet, lucid — for many topics, it has the clearest explanations I’ve seen.

Misc: In increasing order of difficulty:
* The Enjoyment of Mathematics by Rademacher & Toeplitz
* What is Mathematics? by Courant & Robbins
* Geometry and the Imagination by Hilbert & Cohn-Vossen
* How to Solve It by Pólya
* The Development of Mathematics in the 19th Century by Klein

Three other books I’d like to point out at the beginner’s level are
* Crocheting Adventures with Hyperbolic Planes by Taimina, if you crochet
* From Calculus to Chaos by Acheson
* if you like physics, and Polyhedra by Cromwell
* Finally, if you become interested in the cutting edge, browse the enormous Princeton Companion to Mathematics.

==Science==
* The Structures of Scientific Revolutions (there' s also a 50 years later version)

==Finance==
* The Millionaire Next Door
* The richest man in babylon
