Kosko, Bart: "Fuzzy Thinking". Hyperion, 1993.
A great book, starting from a philosophical point of view and going into all the different sciences.
Kosko, Bart: "Heaven in a Chip". Three Rivers Press, 1999.
How would our world look if fuzzy thinking was more spread in our daily life. Not so easy to read, but it gives you a lot to think about. The mathematical parts are in the back of the book and are not important to understand his ideas.
Mukaidono, Masao: "Fuzzy Logic for Beginners". Singapore: World Scientific, 2001.
The title speaks for itself. A good start, but not very exciting.
Gay, David: "Geometry by Discovery". University of Arizona, 1999.
A great book which makes you discover geometry by yourself. It helps you acquire techniques to solve a problem by simpifying it and then going on step by step until you are at the original problem.
