Creativity plays an important role in all human activities, from the visual arts to cinema and theatre, and in particular in science and mathematics .This volume, published only in English in the series "Mathematics and Culture", stresses the strong links between mathematics, culture and creativity in architecture, contemporary art, geometry, computer graphics, literature, theatre and cinema. So this book is designed not only for mathematicians but for all the people who have an interest in the various aspects of culture, both scientific and literary, with a special emphasis on the visual aspects.

This volume stresses the strong links between mathematics, culture and creativity in architecture, contemporary art, geometry, computer graphics, literature, theatre and cinema. It is designed not only for mathematicians but for anyone interested in the various aspects of culture, both scientific and literary, with a special emphasis on the visual aspects.

Recenzijos

Aus den Rezensionen: "Dieses Buch ... ist eine interessante Erganzung zum ersten Band. Wiederum weitet sich der Blick der Mathematik auf verschiedene Felder und hilft, Mathematik besser als Teil unserer Kultur zu verstehen. 19 Beitrage werden unter den 3 Uberschriften ... geboten ... und laden zu weiterfuhrenden Gedanken ein." (F. Schweiger, in: IMN - Internationale Mathematische Nachrichten, 2008, Vol. 62, Issue 208, S. 67)
