If you’ve spent a fair share of time in math class glancing at the clock, you’re not alone. Glancing at the clouds and wondering how well counting the flower petals on the windowsill can help you run out the clock is a pretty common phenomenon for people who aren’t into numbers. But those connections you make aren’t just in your head. You might just be closer than you think to understanding the universe.

The Voice of Math takes a deep dive into understanding numbers through the lens of humanity. You’ll see the struggles humanity has taken to understand life and the hiccups in understanding. If you look closely, you’ll probably see yourself, too.

If you’ve always been curious about math but don’t know where to start, pick up this book. Inside you’ll find Easter eggs we’ve scattered through its pages. Inside you’ll find mathematical problems broken down to become more understandable. Inside you’ll unlock mysteries history has solved and a few you can unlock on your own.

This book is designed to inspire curiosity. It’s to develop a love for math from an anecdotal point of view. Who you are may just be hidden in these pages, and your journey to become a mathematician might just be right around the corner.

DAVE KESTER, CEO of Coaching Actuaries, has spent years coaching students to achieve their actuary certifications. Dave has spent years exploring mathematical patterns and has found a great passion for finding their connections with everyday life. His love of math and his mission to uplift and push students to overcoming obstacles has encouraged him to help others develop the same level of love for math. MIKAELA ASHCROFT has a master's degree in physics and has worked as a ghostwriter and author for over 13 years. Physical and mental exploration of the unknown has always been among the most important goals for Mikaela, and the collaborative effort with Dave Kester has proved among the most enlightening yet.
