This March 14,
Short Wave is celebrating pi ... and pie! We do that with the help of mathematician
Eugenia Cheng, Scientist In Residence at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and author of the book
How to Bake Pi. We start with a recipe for clotted cream and end, deliciously, at how math is so much more expansive than grade school tests.
Click through to our episode page for the recipes mentioned in this episode.
Plus, Eugenia's been on Short Wave before! To hear more, check out our episode,
A Mathematician's Manifesto For Rethinking Gender.
