This “insanely interesting” (Bustle) series explores the question, where did math come from-was it invented or simply discovered by observing the world around us?
Numbers as God
Fry examines the connection between music and math that fascinated ancient Greece, explores mathematical patterns in nature, and views the brain’s hardwiring for math.
Expanded Horizons
Adding to the case that math was discovered, Hannah examines Newton’s work on gravity. But Georg Cantor’s theories on the sizes of infinity point to math being invented.
Weirder and Weirder
Hanna discusses the two main theories predicting and describing the universe-quantum physics and general relativity-which are incompatible with each other.
