Shape : the hidden geometry of information, biology, strategy, democracy, and everything else / Jordan Ellenberg.

Summary:

"Shape reveals the geometry underneath some of the most important scientific, political, and philosophical problems we face. Geometry asks: Where are things? Which things are near each other? How can you get from one thing to another thing? Those are important questions. Geometry doesn't just measure the world-it explains it. Shape shows us how"-- Provided by publisher.
