Status Updates From Figuring

“The sheer thrill of discovery—the ecstasy of having personally chipped a small fragment of knowledge from the immense monolith of the unknown, that elemental motive force of every sincere scientist.” Accurate description of how it feels to have picked up this book from the used bookstore

I’d like to say that Maria Popova’s writing is like if I were able to put my thought processes into words but that’s giving myself too much credit.

Only on the first chapter and I love this writer dearly. How I have not heard of her until now is a crime. On another note I think the shape on the front is a Gabriel’s Horn, which I think is fitting based on the few pages I’ve read and what I’ve learned about the author :)
