The Story of Maths

If you are interested in the origins of geometry and algebra or if you simply like history, you should check out the BBC documentary series “The Story of Maths”. I stumbled across this series recently and was fascinated. The series shows how ancient people invented methods to solve advanced mathematical problems before they had today’s methods. It rekindled my interest in geometry by showing its historic origin. And it shed new light on some of the mathematical tools that we take for granted today. If this sounds interesting, you will not be disappointed!
