Synopsis

Join sensational drag queen Kyne Santos on an extraordinary journey through the glamorous world of … math?

This sassy book is your VIP pass, taking you behind the scenes with a TikTok superstar who shatters stereotypes and proves that math can be fascinating and fun, even for people who think they aren’t good at it.

With her irreverent style and unique perspective, Kyne investigates mathematical mysteries while educating us about the art of drag. She explores surprising connections, such as the elegance of ballroom culture and the nature of infinity, the rebellious joys of Pride and dividing by zero, and the role of statistics in her own experience on Drag Race. Kyne gets personal while sharing her experiences as a queer person forging a path in STEM, overcoming obstacles to stay fierce, stay real, and thrive! She empowers readers of all skill levels to break school rules, question everything, and embrace math’s beauty.

In Math in Drag, numbers glitter, equations sashay through history, and inclusivity is a celebration. Read it to fire your excitement and unleash your inner math diva!

“This is a dazzling, joyful, and hard-hitting account of how math—and humans—cannot be confined to rigid boxes no matter how much some people try to box them in. Kyne’s irrepressible spirit shines through bravely and fabulously.”—Eugenia Cheng, author of Is Math Real? and How to Bake Pi

This books was so simple and easy to understand stand. Math is not my strong suit. I was worried that it was going to be complexed. However, it dives deep into math theories without being complicated. Kyne makes it very easy for the reader to understand. It is not a text book where it teaches you ho......more
