Imagine mathematics, imagine with the help of mathematics,
imagine new worlds, new geometries, new forms. This bookis intended
to contribute to grasping how much that is interesting and new is
happening in the relationships between mathematics, imagination and
culture. With a look at the past, at figures and events, that help
to understand the phenomena of today.
It is no coincidence that this volume contains an homage to the
great Italian artist of the 1700s, Andrea Pozzo, and his
perspective views. Theatre, art and architecture are the topics of
choice, along with music, literature and cinema. No less important
are applications of mathematics to medicine and economics.
The treatment is rigorous but captivating, detailed but full of
evocations, an all-embracing look at the world of mathematics and
culture
