Video — In Conversation with Manil Suri

Published by MrHonner on

The Asia Society has published the video of my conversation with mathematician and novelist Manil Suri at the recent Jaipur Literature Festival New York.

Manil and I had a great talk about math, writing, and teaching. His latest book, The Big Bang of Numbers, is terrific and highly recommended for math enthusiasts of all ages!
