"Mathamatics is the extension of common sense by other means" Nerd alert. Yes, this is a book talking all about math. I absolutely enjoyed the first quarter of the book using math to understand things. By the second half, I think I had too much math details with topics of proba ility and theories of relativity.

Book 2/381. Today‘s book for #onebookaday was, How Not To Be Wrong. For this one, I think a written book might have gone a little better than audio as this book is pretty academic and takes a little patients. At the same time though, all of the concepts are easy to grasp even if you aren‘t any good at math. Take it from me, I hardly know basic algebra.

CrowCAH You should totally listen to the Lunar Chronicles; they‘re soooo great to listen to!!! 6y
