	What is a polymath?
		Anyone can be a polymath as long as he or she has the right motivation.
		The polymath seeks to develop a highly tuned mental processing unit (MPU), which is really the computer everyone should be most concerned with.
		It is the mind in control of emotions, but also the genuine integration of feelings and sensibilities with thought, so the polymath is also a poet, a composer, an artist, or a novelist perhaps.

	Polymath - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		As informally used in contemporary discussion, a "polymath" is someone known to be skillful or to excel in a broad range of intellectual fields.
		Many notable polymaths lived during the European Renaissance period, and a rounded approach to education was typical of the ideals of the humanists of the time.
		A polymath may not necessarily be classed as a genius, which is a related classification; and certainly a genius may not display the breadth of knowledge to qualify as a polymath.

	Education Resources » Polymath
		On the other hand, “polymath” may be applied more strictly, taking Leonardo da Vinci or Goethe as prime examples, and requiring a universality of approach.
		Two conceivable definitions of polymath are the overt ‘greatly learned,’ which would be inclusive of polyhistor (though not all polymaths would be polyhistors, all polyhistors would be polymaths).
		Another would be that polymath via the adjunct of science from the Greek mathēmatikè téchnē implies that the knowledge and learning be specifically about sciences or have been gained through scientific inquiry or more broadly be mathematically-logically based.

	Chocolate and Vodka :: A polymath in an age of specialists
		Indeed, most people don't seem to know what to do with a polymath when they come across one, searching for a way to squeeze them into their regimented and compartmentalised view of the world, trying to find them an appropriate pigeonhole instead of letting them flit from perch to perch within the dovecote.
		From an "aged" polymath -- as one ages (I am a ripe old 52) the problems of polymathy grow if one has not "settled" (and I mean that literally and figuratively) into a career with some "legs".
		Perhaps the polymath is a lonely figure and much undervalued by traditional employers, but that just tells me we need to redouble our efforts to subvert the specialist compartmentalisation model by recruiting more specialists over to our side, and get that breeding program started....

	Polymath: ‘A Renaissance Man’
		A polymath may not necessarily be classed as a genius, which is a more debatable classification; and certainly a genius may not display the breadth to qualify as a polymath.
		A polymath, then, is someone who is particularly knowledgeable in many subjects, and the word is most frequently attached to people who have excelled in more than one field of intellectual or artistic endeavour.
		Other people, however, argue that being a polymath is not a state of being, but a state of becoming.

		At Polymath we develop novel approaches to these problems, including, for example, methods that rely on the approximate evolution of phase space distributions, such as the Wigner function.
		Another approach is to use slow-temporal-envelope descriptions where the paraxial approximation is not made and where nonlinear and diffractive effects can be balanced in all directions.
		A rather challenging example of such a waveguide device is described in a Polymath presentation at the IPR/NLGW conference in Victoria, BC, April 1-3, 1998.
