In this thrilling numerical journey, Hugh Barker explores how mathematics has helped to build the technology of today, and the fascinating ways it is shaping our future. From green energy to 3D printing and from quantum cryptography to machine learning, Quantum Leaps reveals where we're heading, and how it would be impossible to get there without our formidable mathematical armoury.
