A chapter in Math Talks for Undergraduates, 1999, pp 1-17 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract I don’t know any subject other than number theory where one can give a talk on mathematics centered around major unsolved problems, but understandable with almost no background in mathematics. High school students with slight calculus background should be able to understand most of this talk on prime numbers. The presentation is reworked from talks I have given to several audiences.
