Ends and odds

  • Here is a short, five-part BBC series on special numbers: 0, Ï€, Φ, i, and ∞.
  • They also made a second series about another five numbers: 4, 7, 213,466,917 -1, 74 (percent), and game theory (which is obviously not a number).
  • Another BBC radio series on Archean geology and the rise of life.
  • A great, and really long, review of Thomas Friedman’s book “The World is Flat”.
