Gaudi's Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, the America's Cup victory of
the Swiss sail boat Alinghi, films such as A Beautiful Mind and
Enigma, the theatrical play based on the life of Galois, the images
of the Dutch graphic artist M. C. Escher, crypotography, comics.
What do all these have in common? Mathematics, of course. Many
recent films, plays and books have explored mathematical themes.
This book, whose aim is the popularization of mathematics,
comprises a series of accounts which demonstrate in these cultural
contexts that mathematics is a vibrant and intriguing subject for
the non-specialist. In the same spirit, other contributions cover
mathematics in art, architecture, cryptography, and the medical and
physical sciences.
