Math! Science! History!

On October 29, 1969 two letters were sent from UCLA to Stanford, and Lo! The Internet was Born! From there, the information freeway evolved into a speedway, and now, here we are! Downloading podcasts, watching movies, watching cat videos!  If you are interested in reading about its history and seeing photos of 3420 Boelter Hall, where it all began, come visit me at www.mathsciencehistory.com !  Thanks for listening!

I have a secret about my celebrity crush. But we must be discrete about it! If you are interested in learning more about discrete math and my favorite Die Hard puzzle, please feel free to visit me at www.mathsciencehistory.com and read more about it (there are visuals too).  Also, while you are at my Website, please feel free to click on the coffee link and buy me a cup of coffee!  Until next week, carpe diem!

In 1870 Matilda Joslyn Gage published her tract "Woman as Inventor." This pamphlet listed many women in science who went unnoticed while their male counterparts received accolades. Even this year, not one woman received a Nobel in science or medicine. This podcast names the many women who deserved scientific accolades for their contributions to science. And, it lists several things we can do to fix the Matilda Effect!  If you would like to read more about the Matilda Effect and several tremendous

Laura Maria Caterina Bassi received her Ph.D. at 21 years of age. She was the first woman to earn a professorship in physics at a university. As a trailblazer for women in STEM, she was one of the first women in science to accomplish so much! Her story is truly memorable.  If you are interested in reading more about the history of math and science, please visit my website, https://www.mathsciencehistory.com - and while you are there, please feel free to click on that coffee button and buy me a cup

Pi is a wonderful, magical number. Pi is a mathematical constant that has over a trillion digits. But, in 250 BCE, it was only accurate to two digits. Around 250 BCE Archimedes wrote his treatise Dimension of the Circle, which is a brief body of work that describes the measurements of a circle, including his approximation of the value of pi. After that, the number went on and on and on..... If you are interested in visuals and reading more about the evolution of the digits of pi, please visit my Web

John Dalton helped to usher in atomic research. Our current subatomic research has evolved from his very beginnings when he began to identify his elemental theories in chemical reactions in his first five elements. These five simple notations opened up a whole world of elemental calculations for future generations to discover.  If you are interested in reading more about his work and theories, you can visit my blog at https://www.mathsciencehistory.com  Thanks for listening!

Long before our history books were written, many etchings were calculations. Math has been the foundation of our ancestral intellect. From etchings on bones to the geometrical calculations of our cosmos, math has guided us with every epiphany! This podcast is about the history of people, innovations, and theories that have spurred us on to the unimaginable discoveries of our ineffable future! Welcome to Math! Science! History!
