A new history of mathematics focusing on the marginalized voices who propelled the discipline, spanning six continents and thousands of years of untold stories. "A book to make you love math." —Financial Times Mathematics shapes almost everything we do. But despite its reputation as the study of fundamental truths, the stories we have been told about it are wrong—warped like the sixteenth-century map that enlarged Europe at the expense of Africa, Asia and the Americas. In The Secret Lives of Numbers, renowned math historian Kate Kitagawa and journalist Timothy Revell make the case that the history of math is infinitely deeper, broader, and richer than the narrative we think we know. Our story takes us from Hypatia, the first great female mathematician, whose ideas revolutionized geometry and who was killed for them—to Karen Uhlenbeck, the first woman to win the Abel Prize, “math’s Nobel.” Along the way we travel the globe to meet the brilliant Arabic scholars of the “House of Wisdom,” a math temple whose destruction in the Siege of Baghdad in the thirteenth century was a loss arguably on par with that of the Library of Alexandria; Madhava of Sangamagrama, the fourteenth-century Indian genius who uncovered the central tenets of calculus 300 years before Isaac Newton was born; and the Black mathematicians of the Civil Rights era, who played a significant role in dismantling early data-based methods of racial discrimination. Covering thousands of years, six continents, and just about every mathematical discipline, The Secret Lives of Numbers is an immensely compelling narrative history.
"If you’re looking for a dose of wonder in your reading life, I recommend this beautiful book about the magic of fig trees."—Book Riot Over millions of years, fig trees have shaped our world, influenced our evolution, nourished our bodies and fed our imaginations. And as author and ecologist Mike Shanahan proclaims, “The best could be yet to come.” Gods, Wasps and Stranglers weaves together the mythology, history and ecology of one of the world’s most fascinating—and diverse—groups of plants, from their starring role in every major religion to their potential to restore rainforests, halt the loss of rare and endangered species and even limit climate change. In this lively and joyous book, Shanahan recounts the epic journeys of tiny fig wasps, whose eighty-million-year-old relationship with fig trees has helped them sustain more species of birds and mammals than any other trees; the curious habits of fig-dependent rhinoceros hornbills; figs’ connection to Krishna and Buddha, Jesus and Muhammad; and even their importance to Kenya’s struggle for independence. Ultimately, Gods, Wasps and Stranglers is a story about humanity’s relationship with nature, one that is as relevant to our future as it is to our past.

This is a detailed, narrative–based history of Classical Malay Literature. It covers a wide range of Malay texts, including folk literature; the influence of the Indian epics and shadow theatre; Panji tales; the transition from Hindu to Muslim literary models; Muslim literature; framed tales; theological literature; historical literature; legal codes; and the dominant forms of poetry, the pantun and syair. The author describes the background to each of these particular literary periods. He engages in depth with specific texts, their various manuscripts, and their contents. In so doing, he draws attention to the historical complexity of tradisional Malay society, its worldviews, and its place within the wider framework of human experience. Dr. Liaw’s History of Classical Malay Literature will be of benefit to beginning students of Malay Literature and to established scholars alike. It can also be read with benefit by those with a wider interest in Comparative Literature and in Southeast Asian culture in general.
Could life be but a dream within a dream? Tales of Jideofor is a work of historical fiction set in the 18th century at the zenith of the transatlantic slave trade. It follows the life of a young lad, Jideofor, from Illah in Western Igbo lands down to Jamaica, through a rich tale of dreams, destiny, love, and reincarnation. In the story, Book 1 of the trilogy, Farastein blurs the lines between fact and fiction, and blends history with mystery seamlessly well, for you to see the truth within the myths of birth and death. Within the pages, you'll experience preserved Western Igbo cultures and beliefs, and life as a Negro slave in the Caribbean, specifically Jamaica. You'll fall in love with Jideofor and MaryJane's brief but beautiful love story. You'll be a witness to the destiny of dreams and how they unfold from birth to death from an African perspective as well as belief in reincarnation. In the end, you might just realize that life is indeed but a dream; that we all are Jideofor, in another face, in another place, living another tale.
The subject of this book is best reflected in the prologue of Lucia Chiavola Birnbaum book, “Dark Mother - African Origins and Godmothers.” On page 25 of her book she writes: The hypothesis of this book is that everyone’s genetic beautiful mother is African and dark and that she is the oldest divinity we know. Now the consensus among world scientists is that Africa is the cradle of the most ancient living beings that paleo-anthropologists are willing to call homo, and that Africa is the place of origin of modern humans, homo sapiens. The subject of this book is global in scope. It examines how religions such as Christianity and Islam were negatively used to deny women their rights and impede their progress socially, economically, politically, and educationally. Western and Arab countries have been the main culprits for injustices done to women. Africa has been devastated because of the negative influences of Islam and Christianity on the continent. The misogynic expressions that men have developed are, in large part, due to the misuse of Islam and Christianity. Women in all parts of the world are awakening to a new dawn of the truth. Women who read this book may, at first, see it as male bashing. However, a closer scrutiny will reveal that the issues raised in this book cannot continue to be ignored by either women or men. This is also a commentary about the biblical Eve and the scientific Abar. They are compatible in geographical location of origin and race. As far a as I am concerned, they are.
The Akan are an African indigenous group found primarily in the southern parts of Ghana, as well as in Cote d'Ivoire and in Togo. This book explores certain aspects of Akan language, culture and tradition that point to association with star beings from the Sirius star system. Akan language and culture offers clues and revelations that point to links with the ancient cultures of Mesopotamia and of the Nile valley. Among these revelations, Kwame Adapa shows that names of Akan deities can be traced back to Egyptian and Mesopotamian deities who have links with the Sirius star system. Having grown up in Akan culture, it was a starting point for Kwame Adapa to do more research on the Akan and other African people. Among the revelations in this book are language and cultural connections between the Akan and other African groups as well as with human groups beyond Africa. Kwame Adapa tells an engaging story that implies that the Akan, the Bakwama, the Bambara, the Dogon and just about every African ethnic group is connected to the Sirius star system in one way or another. These connections can be found in their legends, their language and their culture.
