Nathalie Sinclair, William Higginson, "Mathematics and the Aesthetic: New Approaches to an Ancient Affinity"
2006 | pages: 298 | ISBN: 0387305262 | PDF | 3,6 mb

This collection of essays explores the ancient affinity between the mathematical and the aesthetic, focusing on fundamental connections between these two modes of reasoning and communicating. From historical, philosophical and psychological perspectives, with particular attention to certain mathematical areas such as geometry and analysis, the authors examine ways in which the aesthetic is ever-present in mathematical thinking and contributes to the growth and value of mathematical knowledge.
