The days are getting shorter, the fog is descending, and can you believe it?, we are thrilled to announce that Issue 24 of Chalkdust will launch at 10:00 on Friday 13 November. This is an especially good issue, with more fun and better graphics than ever. To see it in the flesh, go ahead and preorder printed copies now!
You’re in for a good time! Once again we have the wide range of articles you’ve come to expect. We have an interview with journalist and author Alex Bellos; we learn how dogs evolved from wolves; we compare beach balls and rubber rings; we jump around chess boards; and we crochet lots and lots of granny squares.
Then there’s the regular features you love: Dear Dirichlet returns, we tell you what’s hot and what’s not, and we tell you how to generate your dissertation title from your name. Plus there’s the famous prize crossnumber and our other terrific puzzles.
