Jordan Ellenberg reveals a side to geometry we don't often encounter in math class, diving deep into a hidden language that is intrinsically present in everything we see and do.

Understanding math can be very challenging, especially in the vast world of geometry.

Geometry is difficult, but it's even harder to understand when it's taught in a dull way. Unfortunately, that is often the case.

Jordan Ellenberg's 2021 release is a rare thing: a book in which math meets interesting stories, intuitive examples, and fun.

A child prodigy and two-time Putnam Fellow, Jordan Ellenberg is an American mathematician and writer. He's also a mathematics professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Taught via history, biology, sociology, politics, and anecdotes, Ellenberg's take on geometry gives it a very different flavor from your elementary school textbooks — or Euclid, for that matter.

Ellenberg's Shape offers a fun ride around our world, observed through the lens of geometry.
