A really stimulating listen, thanks. Very intrigued about the novel on Probability. I don't think it can be "understood" or "managed" sans mathematics, otherwise humans just end up making all sorts of heuristic mistakes based on "common sense". But the author is clearly going to come out with something with a fair bit of meat to it!

I'm looking forward to reading The Portrait of a Mirror. Thanks for the tip re: her substack / the Austen Math series— so fun!
Isn’t it great!!?
Fantastic!! And a timely find, as I’m making my way through Lucy Worsley’s book on Austen.
