i just want people to know what's actually going on in the extent to which politicians are insulating themselves. Practice of jerry mandering is something that has succeeded by taking place mostly in the dark. If you think about it just as a political problem, and don't seriously engage with the mathematics of what the algerthm is actually doing, you're also going to get wrong and useless answers. I love it a let me. Let us have an exit. And i'm going to ask, i mut throw some quotes from yourself back at you, and then you can get us out of here with your current thaws.
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.
