The famous Simon Singh is back in the spotlight with a surprisingly disruptive book. Only this magician of PopSci best sellers could reveal the mesmerizing style of an incredible mathematical "conspiracy."
The authors of The Simpsons series seem wildly "stuck" with numbers. They are mathematicians, physicists, computer scientists, and anything else related you can think of. Additionally, they have talent in writing, imagination, inspiration, and incredible, genuine humor. They "abandoned" their science succumbing to the allure of Hollywood, yet they never hid their secret love for mathematics.
Singh spoke with the authors, "interrogated" them, saw their goal: Through witty jokes, in every episode of the series, mathematical "gems" are planted in the subconscious of the viewers. In the lines of The Simpsons lie the first of Mersenne, Fermat's last theorem, infinity, pi, Ramanujan, Hilbert, Gauss, Turing, topology, chaos theory, game theory... The secret mathematics of these beloved cartoons could constitute a Mathematics Department curriculum!
Result: The new generation grows up in a pop culture of mathematics, loves this science, and learns to think.
A hit with mathematical precision!
