This volume brings to the forefront some of the proponents of the mathematics of the twentieth century, who have put at our disposal new and powerful instruments for investigating the reality around us. The portraits present people who have impressive charisma and wide-ranging cultural interests, who are passionate about defending the importance of their own research, are sensitive to beauty, and attentive to the social and political problems of their times. What we have sought to document is mathematics’ central position in the culture of our day. Space has been made not only for the great mathematicians but also for literary texts, including contributions by two apparent interlopers, Robert Musil and RaymondQueneau, for whom mathematical concepts represented a valuable tool for resolving the struggle between ‘soul and precision.’ | | 出版日期 | Book 2011 | | 关键词 | history of mathematics; twentieth-century mathematicians | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-13606-1 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-642-44755-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-13606-1 | | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2011 |
