About this listen

Math 101: A History of Numbers isn’t a textbook — it’s a story. A fast, listenable, journey through how we went from counting on our fingers to coding AI. From ancient bone tallies and Sumerian tokens to Renaissance ratios, algebraic revolutions, and modern machine logic, this book tracks the true evolution of math — not as cold formulas, but as a living system we built to make sense of the world. Whether you’re a math nerd, a history lover, or someone who just wants to get what the big deal is, this is the book that shows you math’s real story — full of people, problems, and the patterns that changed everything.
