Math Encounters -- Fibonacci & the Golden Ratio Exposed -- Keith Devlin ...

The golden ratio is a fascinating number, but how much of what you read (or believe) is true—and what are the common myths? Join us as Stanford mathematician, award-winning author, and NPR "Math Guy" Keith Devlin examines the evidence and separates fact from fiction.

Devlin received a special introduction from Jim Simons, founder of Renaissance Technologies and winner of the Veblen Prize in Geometry.

Math Encounters is a public presentation series celebrating the spectacular world of mathematics and presented by the Simons Foundation and the Museum of Mathematics.
