	Economic Principals
		Marshall was born in 1842 in a London suburb.
		The title appeared to be a deliberate echo of mathematicians' tomes, including those of Frege, Brouwer and Hilbert, itself perhaps a sly dig at Keynes, who a dozen years before had borrowed the title of his “General Theory” from Einstein.
		Marshall was something of a failure as a human being.

	Thomas Digges \| Gentleman and Mathematician
		As a mathematician, Digges aspired ‘to reach above the common sort’ (ibid.), and his intellectual elitism was mirrored in the values which he ascribed to the regular solids and their study.
		In transferring his identity as a mathematician from one ideal of gentlemanly conduct to another, Digges cast a role for himself that is recognisably closer to that of a mathematical practitioner.
		The secondary or accidental causes included the rarity or density of the air, the presence of wind, the wadding and ramming of the charge, the irregularity of the ground, the accuracy of the bore, the temperature of the piece, and the tight or loose fit of the bullet.

	Gian-Carlo Rota on Jack Schwartz
		The profession of mathematician had not yet been recognized by the public, and it was not infrequent for a mathematics graduate student to be asked whether he was planning to become an actuary.
		From the beginning of the Yale graduate school all the way to the twenties, the one notable research mathematician to have taught at Yale was E.H. Moore, and two of the few distinguished mathematicians to come out of Yale until the fifties were Marshall Hall and Irving Segal.
		A distinguished mathematician, who is still alive, pointedly remarked to me in 1955 that any existence theorem for partial differential equations which had been proved without using a topological fixpoint theorem should be dismissed as applied mathematics.

		Whewell maintained a consistent hostility to the implications of mechanised analysis: 'we may thus deny to the mechanical philosophers and mathematicians of recent times any authority with regard to their views of the administration of the Universe'.
		In the metropolitan anatomy schools where Marshall Hall taught and Thomas Huxley studied in the 1840s, the new doctrine of the reflex arc indicated that the central nervous system functioned like an automatic machine.
		Hall notoriously sought to distinguish the realm of the cerebrum, the proper governor of the sensory and voluntary nerves, from the more automatic, less capricious, excito-motory nerves.

		It nonetheless might be possible to rewrite the laws of physics in a consistent way to portray a Tychonic-like cosmogony.
		An Egyptian mathematician, Mustafa Abelkadar, considered an inverted geocosmos, that is, a Universe in which distant nebulae, stars and quasars were tiny microscopic objects in the center of a nutshell-like, all-surrounding Earth-sphere.
		Light travelled in circular arcs; it was impossible to traverse the center of the geocosmos because one became very tiny and velocities became very tiny as one approached the center.

	Search Results for Artin
		Mathematicians like E Artin, Chevalley and A Weil came to our country for this occasion, and significant contributions to long-standing problems of the theory of complex multiplication by Goro Shimura and Yutaka Taniyama as well as by A Weil were reported at the Symposium.
		One was Artin's Geometric Algebra which she read and loved, a second was a chance to attend seminars at Cornell over the summer of 1962 while her husband was there on a research visit, and the third was an inspiring discussion she had with Hanna Neumann when she visited Mount Holyoke College.
		This was nothing to do with his mathematical ability which everyone accepted as outstanding, but rather some mathematicians such as Artin felt that they could not have Nash as a colleague due to his aggressive personality.

		A gifted mathematician, Polish-born Stanislaw Ulam made contributions to set theory, topology, mathematical logic, and number theory, but is most widely remembered for his work in fostering the technical development of thermonuclear weapons.
		Stanislaw Ulam was gifted mathematician who, during the course of his career, made significant contributions to set theory, topology, ergodic theory, probability, cellular automata theory, the study of nonlinear processes, the function of real variables, mathematical logic, and number theory.
		As Ulam was in contact with a few generations of mathematicians in both the U.S. and Poland, his correspondence provides an interesting record of the evolution of mathematics in both countries.
