The Pleasures of Counting

Korner, T. W. (University of Cambridge)

Omschrijving

What is the connection between the outbreak of cholera in Victorian Soho, the Battle of the Atlantic and the design of anchors? They all show how a little mathematics can shed light on the world around us. If you have ever wondered what mathematicians do, then read on. Mathematicians wanting to explain to others how they spend their working days (and nights) should seek inspiration here.
