Jesse Abbot kicks off the first of a three part series of talks in the history and philosophy of math and science with Peter Skiff of Bard College. Meet us just off from the Cyber Cafe at 1PM tomorrow at the college.
This should be a wonderful kick-off to an interesting series of events that will extend into the Spring, including “Calculus in India Before Newton and Leibniz” by Kimberly Plofker of Union College and “The Anthropic Principle: Its Ethical and Philosophical Implications” by our own Vladimir Gromov.
