The Maths of Life and Death by Kit Yates

informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.5

I loved this book. It was a perfect collision of reading and maths, two of the things I love. I read it during exam season and it felt like the perfect motivation to keep going with revision because it reminded me of all the very real reasons maths is important and why I'm doing a maths A Level in the first place all while being a good read for my study breaks. I would recommend this to anyone who is interested in the way maths integral to life on Earth, whatever their maths ability, as all of the mathematical concepts were well explained, and you didn't have to understand any equations or anything.
