The historical and epistemological reflection on the applications
of mathematical techniques to the Sciences of Nature - physics,
biology, chemistry, and geology - today generates attention and
interest because of the increasing use of mathematical models in
all sciences and their high level of sophistication. The goal of
the meeting and the papers collected in this proceedings volume is
to give physicists, biologists, mathematicians, and historians of
science the opportunity to share information on their work and
reflect on the and mathematical models are used in the natural
sciences today and in way mathematics the past. The program of the
workshop combines the experience of those working on current
scientific research in many different fields with the historical
analysis of previous results. We hope that some novel
interdisciplinary, philosophical, and epistemological
considerations will follow from the two aspects of the workshop,
the historical and the scientific* This proceedings includes papers
presented at the meeting and some of the results of the discussions
that took place during the workshop. We wish to express our
gratitude to Sergio Monteiro for all his work, which has been
