Fascination Science - The Life of Pi

The Fascination of Science brings world-leading scientists to you in this free lecture series at Massey University, Auckland.

In this talk, Professor Downey, awarded the Rutherford Medal in 2018, will examine the history of how we began to understand the number pi over the last four millennia. This is also the story of the development of a branch of modern mathematics called analysis; a story still being told today.
