Abstract

Anhand einiger meist neuerer Mathematikgeschichtsbücher werden u.a. folgende Fragen behandelt: Könnte die Mathematik unter Gut und Böse eingeordnet werden? Wieweit greift Mathematik ins persönliche Leben ein? Kann die Mathematik unter dem Aspekt der Nationalität oder der Rassen betrachtet werden? Mathematik und Frauen. Soll die Mathematik chronologisch aufgerollt werden? Verhältnis zwischen Mathematik und Computer. Kuriositäten in der Mathematik. Verhältnis der Mathematik zur Religion.
