Are there any mathematics audiobooks, such as for those who are blind? How do they pronounce the equations?

    Audio books for the deaf? You mean like movies for the blind? – Git Gud Dec 28 '14 at 00:17
  • @GitGud: Yeah, I was actually thinking about mathematical braille when I was writing the question… thanks for the correction. – Geremia Dec 28 '14 at 00:49

    this question made me wonder how difficult it is for the blind to understand mathematics ._. – Soham Mar 23 '15 at 09:10

You might find the answers to this post helpful, in terms of standards for speaking mathematics without relying on the receiver's vision.

The question asks for a definitive guide to spoken mathematics. You'll find many resources there, including the link to Handbook for Spoken Mathmatics.

Lectures on mathematics (e.g. MIT courses) can be considered as audio-books of mathematics.
