Finished this. It was great. I'm a sucker for these kinds of maths/science breakthrough history stories. 33 / 52 books this year!
@phocks putting it on my TBR list
@phocks I started reading it at your recommendation/review. It's a great read, puts a lot of things in perspective.
@ash glad you're liking it! I thought it was pretty great!
@phocks The problem with me in a good book is that I never get to sleep and I'm tired the next day😆
@phocks okay NOW I can sleep 😏😪😴
@ash wow fast reader!
@phocks nah, just obsessive. Meanwhile, today's XKCD makes a lot more sense now https://xkcd.com/2657/
@ash haha yeah I think it's wild that they just made up imaginary numbers out of thin air just to solve a few things that didn't make sense. Pretty ingenious
