Extractions: Mathematician Report Index Below is a list of mathematicians. You may choose from this list or report on a mathematician not listed here. In either case, you must discuss with me the mathematician you have chosen prior to starting your report. No two students may write a report on the same mathematician. I would advise you to go to the library before choosing your topic as there might not be much information on the mathematician you have chosen. Also, you should determine the topic early in the term so that you can "lock-in" your report topic!! The report must include: 1. The name of the mathematician. 2. The years the mathematician was alive. 3. A biography. 4. The mathematician's major contribution(s) to mathematics and an explanation of the importance. 5. A historical perspective during the time the mathematician was alive.

Extractions: YMMETRIC FIGURES th and 20 th centuries found many more. The aesthetic value of such objects was not lost on artists of the Renaissance and the Enlightenment, who used them in their works of art and architecture. Today, a small group of dedicated model-makers continues this gentle, age-old art, producing figures of striking intricacy and beauty. As of January 23, 2000, I have redesigned this website so that a visitor no longer need wait for more than a dozen JPG pictures to download. I broke the single large home page up into several smaller ones, each comprising some of the original text and several pictures from the previous version. I also added some general remarks on the geometry of polyhedra and the craft of polyhedron model-making, and an atlas of Mathematica -generated pictures of the nine regular polyhedra.

Extractions: Meeting #31 27 June to 31 July Donald Monan, S.J., president of Boston College provided excellent accommodations and a congenial atmosphere for the very active summer.We are also indebted to administrators like Fr. Jim Woods, S.J. and department chairman William Keane for their generosity and assistance. After having spent a summer at Boston College in 1969 we found that much had changed in the Department during that period of 24 years. The Department gave us a warm invitation finding office space for everyone as well as a class room for our exclusive use, as well as the opportunity to use the library and the computer network of the College. Our housing needs were met with equal satisfaction In one Rubestein Residence Hall where the arrangement was ideal. But in addition he Administration gave us a generous subsidy. Our numbers this summer were 27 participating mathematicians from the Group with 6 other colleagues. The actual Clavius Community, including the families, grew to 55 persons In addition 39 guests passed through at various times during the summer We ran our usual Special Topics Seminar in which 12 persons presented various topics over a wide range of fields. The Differential Geometry Seminar continued with 6 presentations, almost all of which were recent or ongoing research. We initiated a new seminar this year in the History and pedagogy of Mathematics, and 5 presentations were given. Finally we continued with our study seminar on Coexter Groups for a total number of 18 sessions.

Extractions: October 3rd, 2002 A Hymn to Western Civ The making of a book is a long process, carried out in well-defined stages. The last stage at which an author has the chance to make any changes to his text, above the level of a word here or a comma there, is called copy editing. What happens is, a specially-trained reader goes over your manuscript with a fine-tooth comb, fact-checking, looking for errors in grammar or spelling, adjusting optional usages to the house style, and adding some bits and pieces for the benefit of the typesetters, who control the following phase. The copy-edited manuscript is passed back to the author for last words and decisions on doubtful points. (Did you really mean to say this This is the work Ive been absorbed in this past couple of weeks, getting my book through the copy editing stage. Its a grisly chore. By this time the writer has read his manuscript half a dozen times all through, and is thoroughly sick of it.
