IMAGINE MATH 6 : mathematics and culture, XXth anniversary Pdf Book Description:

Imagine math, envision with the support of math, envision new worlds, new geometries, new kinds. Envision building mathematical models which make it feasible to handle our planet better, envision combining music, artwork, poetry, literature, design and theatre with math. Envision the erratic and sometimes counterintuitive software of math in every area of human effort. Imagination and math, creativity and civilization, culture and math.

A massive section of this book is devoted to literature, story and math including a donation in Simon Singh. It discusses the use of media in math, such as museums of journals, science and films. Mathematics and software, including blood flow and preventing offenses using earthquakes, can also be addressed, even though a section on math and artwork examines the use of mathematics in style. A massive selection presents photographs of mathematicians and mathematical items by Vincent Moncorge.

Discussing all subjects in a means that’s rigorous but attractive, detailed but filled with evocations, it delivers an all-embracing look in the world of culture and mathematics.
