Simultaneously, the Executive Committee expressed the wish that a history of the Union should be written [1). As Secretary of the Union, I had proposed that these issues be dis cussed at the Cambridge meeting, but without having had in mind any personal role in the practical execution of such projects. At that time, the papers of the IMU were stored in Zurich, at the Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule, and I saw no reason why they could not remain there. At about this time, Professor K. Chandrasekharan produced a handwritten article titled "The Prehistory of the International Mathematical Union" [2), and it seemed to me that this might serve as the beginning of a more compre hensive history. I had first thought that Tuulikki MakeUiinen, who during eight years as the Office Secretary ofthe IMU had become well acquainted with the Union, would do the arranging of the archives in Zurich. She had a preliminary look at the material there, but it soon bec | | 出版日期 | Book 1998 | | 关键词 | Applied Mathematics; History of Mathematics; education; individual; mathematics | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4612-0613-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4612-6840-6 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4612-0613-2 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1998 |
