Pythagoras and “His” Theorem

from One Hundred Centuries · host Stephen B. Dowell and Connie B. Dowell

Due to some power outages, we’re a day late on this episode, but if you love math and science history, I hope we’ve made it up to you. Today we discuss Pythagoras, the theorem he made famous but did not actually discover, and his hippie commune in Croton. We’ve got a list of recommended reading to be posted to this page shortly.
