Adam Walton sits down with Author and Mathematician, Professor Sarah Hart, to discuss her debut book, Once Upon a Prime, which explores the connections between mathematics and literature. The book covers everything from the geometry present in Herman Melville’s Moby Dick to George Elliot’s fascination with statistics and the various fractal patterns that underpin Michael Crichton’s Jurassic Park. Produced by Stuart Russell.
