'Cheng has carved out quite a niche for herself demystifying maths through cake. It's a Beautiful-Mind- meets-Scott-Pilgrim kind of mission, and Cheng brings to it an ebullient enthusiasm that's infectious.' Guardian
Forget what you learnt at school. Mathematics is much more than simultaneous equations and πr²: it's a powerful new way of thinking about the world. In How to Bake π, Eugenia Cheng serves up a delectable spread of moreish mathematical puzzles and culinary analogies - including Möbius bagels, Euclid's flourless chocolate cake and apple - to show just how tasty maths can be. Eugenia's miraculous gluten-free, vegan, sugar-free, low-fat, raw chocolate cookies are sure to satisfy even the fussiest eater - and How to Bake n is a foolproof recipe for a mouth-watering mathematical feast too.
'Clear, clever and friendly ... it would be wonderful if this book attracted a new audience to the field. And there's no better ambassador (or dinner-party host, I'd wager) than Eugenia Cheng. Alex Bellos
