i see writing a book like this as continuous with my teaching. I think there's plenty of times that people are still finding that in school. And so we try to bring that to our students in the classroom. They're describing that feeling of making their own knowledge, which is an amazing thing. It's hard to write like all school would do. But i was really excited about these concepts. Oh, it's super fun. That is it for this episode. Follow me on twitter at not smart flog and slash you are not so smart dot com.
In this episode, we sit down with Jordan Ellenberg, the John D. MacArthur Professor of Mathematics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
His writing has appeared in Slate, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Boston Globe, and he is the New York Times bestselling author of How Not to Be Wrong – but in this episode we will discuss his new book, Shape: The hidden geometry of information, biology, strategy, democracy and everything else.
