However, even a scientifically interested layman would be hard pressed to point out aspects of our society where contemporary mathematical research is essential. Most popular examples are finance, engineering, wheather and industry, but the way mathematics comes into play is widely unknown in the public. And who thinks of application fields like biology, encryption, architecture, or voting systems? This volume comprises a number of success stories of mathematics in our society - important areas being shaped by cutting edge mathematical research. The authors are eminent mathematicians with a high sense for public presentation, addressing scientifically interested laymen as well as professionals in mathematics and its application disciplines. 517 $aMATHEMATICS AND SOCIETY. by WOLFGANG KONIG 606 $aMathematics$2bicssc 606 $aGeneral$2msc 615 07$aMathematics 615 07$aGeneral 686 $a00-xx$2msc 701 $aKo?nig$b Wolfgang$094143 801 0$bch0018173 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910153279603321 996 $aMathematics and Society$92565752 997 $aUNINA LEADER 00941nam0 22002531i 450 001 UON00128456 005 20231205102746.313 100 $a20020107d1975 |0itac50 ba 101 $aben 102 $aIN 105 $a|||| 1|||| 200 1 $aBharatatirtha Pushkara$fBuddhadeva Bhattacharyya 210 $aKalikata$c[s. n.]$d1975 215 $a2, 126 p.$cill.$d22 cm 606 $aPELLEGRINAGGI$xINDIA$3UONC012816$2FI 620 $aIN$dCalcutta$3UONL000111 686 $aSI VIII B$cSUBCONT.
