Shownotes Transcript

Omar Khayyam was a brilliant mathematician in Iran in the 11th century. But, he was also an interdisciplinary thinker, which means that he was also an astronomer, a philosopher, a political advisor, and a poet. Even today his poems are read and revered around the world.  To read the podcast's transcripts and to see the noted math equations, please visit me at www.MathScienceHistory.com).
