Imaginary Numbers
Imaginary boyfriends are nice. But imaginary numbers are better! Where did they come from? And who decided to name them imaginary? The answers are all in the podcast! If you want to read more about the history of math and science, visit me at www.MathScienceHistory.com. And while you're there, feel free to buy me a cup of coffee to support the podcast and the blog!

Until next time, carpe diem!
