L'art de ne pas dire n'importe quoi: Ce que le bon sens doit aux mathématiques

Ellenberg's examples are so diverse — from politics to sports — I wonder what guided his choices and if he considered other fields.

It’s rare to see math presented as a way to improve everyday decision-making. Did others find the concepts easier to grasp because of the storytelling?

The interdisciplinary approach adds depth but also complexity. I’m curious whether this was a deliberate strategy or a natural evolution during writing.
