5 out of 5 stars  *****

An Audible Bedtime Story, A Short Account of the History of Mathematics is an interesting account about Mathematics' origins and its significant contributors. Despite all the accomplishments of the Egyptians and Chinese, it is the Ionian Greeks who seem to apply Deductive Science to Mathematics. Tony Shalhoub explains this in his laid-back fashion with a pace and clarity that commands attention. The short time it takes to enjoy this Audible Original is well worth one's time.
