&lt;p&gt;Mathematics is something that either brings back bad memories or something you might enjoyed early on but failed to see it&amp;rsquo;s relevance in real life. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;ldquo;How Not to Be Wrong&amp;rdquo;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; chooses to challenge this perception, revealing mathematics as a vibrant, practical tool for understanding the world around us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jordan Ellenberg explains problems where math isn&amp;rsquo;t confined to classrooms or academic papers, it&amp;rsquo;s woven into the fabric of everyday life, from the lottery tickets we buy to the medical studies we read about, from political polls to questions about the existence of God.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
