I swear all the really well written general books on math were written before 1980! Check out Mathematics, Its Magic and Mastery.
Dang it, I searched for it a long time ago. That would make sense. I found it when reading the book. After searching some terms, here is the book:

It never mentions them directly, but iirc on number 50 the subtitle below the number contained 50 = (10-5)(10-0)
My two favorite books about the Beatles are Peter Brown's The Love You Make and Roy Carr and Tony Tyler's The Beatles: An Illustrated Record (sorry, no copy on Powells.com). Brown's book has a bit more detail, but the Carr/Tyler volume is surprisingly well-written and goes pretty deep, plus it has full-size reproductions of all the album sleeves and a wealth of additional pictorial material as well. Definitely worth checking out.
The Bob Spitz Beatles bio is extraordinarily well-researched and offers numerous background facts I've never seen elsewhere, but may be a bit too detailed for someone who hasn't read that much about the band before.
Hope this helps!
