Ep. 1 Math Science History Introduction

09/18/19 • 8 min

Math is part of our genetic makeup, and history proves it to be true! From 30,000 years ago to today, math has guided us, inspired us, and fueled our scientific progress.

For more information on the ancient Mesopotamian clay tablet, you can see them up close on Dr. Bill Casselman's website at http://www.math.ubc.ca/~cass/Euclid/ybc/ybc.html.

You can also read more about the tablet at Mathematical Association of America at https://www.maa.org/press/periodicals/convergence/the-best-known-old-babylonian-tablet

Until next time, carpe diem!

John Dalton: The Beginning of Atomic Research

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! Carpe diem!
