Rezensionen
From the reviews:
"This is a collection of papers that highlight the relation between mathematics and culture in the broadest sense. ... it is an eye-opener to many who might experience mathematics as an invention to terrorise children at school. ... It is an excellent tool to raise public awareness of mathematics. It can be easily used by teachers or lecturers as a Trojan horse to conquer the fortress of the less mathematically inclined." (A. Bultheel, The European Mathematical Society, October, 2012)
