From imaginary numbers to the fourth dimension and beyond,
mathematics has always been about imagining things that seem
impossible at first glance. In x+y, Eugenia Cheng draws on the
insights of higher-dimensional mathematics to reveal a
transformative new way of talking about the patriarchy,
mansplaining and sexism: a way that empowers all of us to make the
world a better place. Using precise mathematical reasoning to
uncover everything from the sexist assumptions that make society a
harder place for women to live to the limitations of science and
statistics in helping us understand the link between gender and
society, Cheng's analysis replaces confusion with clarity, brings
original thinking to well worn arguments - and provides a radical,
illuminating and liberating new way of thinking about the world and
women's place in it.
