Shape: The Hidden Geometry of Information, Biology, Strategy, Democracy, and Everything Else
Jordan Ellenberg((( 1/f ))) フェダシング / फेडसिंह@NikunjOnTheGo I'm deeply honoured by your respect, but I'm definitely not smart enough to write books for young people in a hurry. I prefer slow thinking. Two good options are Entangled Life by @MerlinSheldrake or Shape by Jordan Ellenberg.

Foucault's Pendulum
Umberto Eco((( 1/f ))) フェダシング / फेडसिंह@sentencebender @leemandelo It's worse. Every time I mention Umberto Eco's book 'Foucault's Pendulum' in a conversation, pseudo types are like yeah yeah I've read Foucault. I'm like, no dude, not the philosopher....the physicist who made the pendulum experiment...Léon Foucault.
