"This work subverts a dull image of mathematics, showing us how math can sparkle and sashay and transforming the way we think about numbers"--From publisher.

"Unleash your inner math diva. Join sensational drag queen Kyne Santos on a fascinating journey through the glamorous world of... math? This hilarious and sometimes controversial book is your VIP pass, taking you behind the scenes with a TikTok superstar who shatters stereotypes and proves that math can be sassy and fun, even for people who think they aren't good at it. Within these pages, Kyne educates us about both mathematical mysteries and the world of drag through her unique perspective. With elegant irreverence, Kyne explores surprising connections, such as the artistry of ballroom culture and the nature of infinity, the illegal joys of Pride and dividing by zero, and the role of statistics in her own experience on Drag Race. This book is about more than just numbers-it's a celebration of inclusivity and the exhilaration of rebellion. Kyne gets personal while sharing her own experiences as a queer person forging a path in STEM. She empowers readers of all ages, genders, and skill levels to break school rules, question everything, and embrace math's beauty. Math in Drag explores a world in which numbers glitter and equations sashay through history. Read it to fire your own excitement and unleash your inner diva. Let Kyne Santos show you how to perform math with style and flair"--From publisher.
