Approach your problems from the right It isn't that they can't see
the solution. end and begin with the answers. Then It is that they
can't see the problem. one day, perhaps you will find the final
question. G.K. Chesterton. The Scandal of Father Brown 'The Point
of a Pin'. 'The Hermit Clad in Crane Feathers' in R.van Gulik's The
Chinese Maze Murders. Growing specialization and diversification
have brought a host of monographs and textbooks on increasingly
specialized topics. However, the "tree" of knowledge of mathematics
and related fields does not grow only by putting forth new
branches. It also happens, quite often in fact, that branches which
were thought to be completely disparate are suddenly seen to be
related. Further, the kind and level of sophistication of
mathematics applied in various sciences has changed drastically in
recent years: measure theory is used (non-trivially) in - gional
and theoretical economics; algebraic geometry interacts with
physics; the Minkowsky lemma, coding theory and the structure of
water meet one another in pack ing and covering theory; quantum
fields, crystal defects and mathematical programming profit from
homotopy theory; Lie algebras are relevant to filtering; and
prediction and electrical engineering can use Stein spaces. And in
addition to this there are such new emerging subdisciplines as
"completely integrable systems," "chaos, synergetics and
large-scale order," which are almost impossible to fit into the
existing classification schemes. They draw upon widely different
sections of mathematics."
