Here is a thought provoking quote from the end of the book, which I finished today #MathsToday

Here's an interesting observation from one of my year 10s: the surface area of a sphere with radius r matches the surface area of 3/4 of a sphere with radius r (kind of like a pac-man shape thing).
My brain, literally on the floor.

Radical Rest argues that it is possible to restructure our political systems by rejecting neoliberal capitalism, prioritising rest, addressing racial disparity, and seeking environmental justice.

Books like this are super important, and it is really quite lovely to start to see intersectional narratives being published and - even better - being available in my local library. Definitely would recommend if you want to learn more about (one of the many) trans experiences.
