Starting with hands, abacus, and slide rule, humans have always reached for tools to simplify math. Pocket-sized calculators ushered in modern mathematics, helped build the atomic bomb, took us to the bottom of the ocean, and accompanied us to the moon. The pocket calculator changed our world, until it was supplanted by more modern devices that, in a cruel twist of irony, it helped to create. Keith Houston transports listeners from the nascent economies of the ancient world to World War II, and into the technological arms race that led to the first affordable electronic pocket calculators.

La plupart des gens aiment les maths. L'ennui, c'est qu'ils ne le savent pas. Dans les temps préhistoriques, les maths sont nées pour être utiles. Les nombres servaient à compter les moutons d'un troupeau. La géométrie permettait de mesurer les champs et de tracer des routes. L'histoire aurait pu en rester là, mais au fil des siècles, les Homo sapiens furent bien étonnés de découvrir les chemins sinueux de cette science parfois abstraite.

Ever since the dawn of human civilisation, we have been trying to make predictions about what's in store for us. We do this on a personal level, so that we can get on with our lives efficiently (should I hang my laundry out to dry, or will it rain?). But we also have to predict on a much larger scale, often for the good of our broader society (how can we spot economic downturns or prevent terrorist attacks?). For just as long, we have been getting it wrong.
