Keith Devlin — The Joy of Math: Learning and What It Means To Be Human

from On Being with Krista Tippett · host On Being Studios

Mathematical equations are like sonnets says Keith Devlin. What most of us learn in school, he says, doesn’t begin to convey what mathematics is. And technology may free more of us to discover the wonder of mathematical thinking — as a reflection of the inner world of our minds. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
