History Of Mathematics

[close] Starting in Summer of 2019, the Fields Institute's MathEd Forum is organizing a book club which focuses on writings on mathematicians, mathematics, and its history.

[close] This is a repository for a conversation around texts between mdP and pi. We will see how we got from not reproducible research to today's drive toward reproducible research (on which pi is the resident expert). Along they way hopefully we'll learn a few things about science, statistics, knowledge and what it means to live. But that all is for another day.

[close] In the past year I have wanted to read more books on mathematics, mathematicians and the history of mathematics. After half a year, I realized that it is way better to discuss this books with other people. Therefore, I thought it would be a good idea to start a book club. We can decide together for a book to read, give us a deadline (something from 1 to 3 months depending on the book) and share our thoughts, favorite quotes on that specific book. Because the books will be math related, talking about the mathematics inside is another must.
