Jason M. Osborne
Jason M. Osborne received a Ph.D in Mathematics from North Carolina State University in 2007. He has been a mathematics educator at several universities (currently Appalachian State University in Boone, NC) and has published a number of peer-reviewed articles for engineering and mathematics journals. He is constantly amazed at how a few scribbles of mathematical symbology on a piece of paper can convey any meaning at all.
When being a Mathematician proves too challenging he tries to think about the variety of ways he can make mathematics more widely accessible. In his first book, a graphic novel, On Maps and Math and Making Friends: A Curvature Story, he artfully explains in nearly 100 full color, animated pages what can and has been written by others in a page or two of black & white, perfectly stationary mathematical formulas.
He has never once been accused of being concise.
