Mathematical Quotations T Back to MQS Home Page Back to "S" Quotations Forward to "U" Quotations Thales (CA 600 BC) I will be sufficiently rewarded if when telling it to others you will not claim the discovery as your own, but will say it was mine. In H. Eves In Mathematical Circles , Boston: Prindle, Weber and Schmidt, 1969. Thompson, D'Arcy Wentworth (1860-1948) Cell and tissue, shell and bone, leaf and flower, are so many portions of matter, and it is in obedience to the laws of physics that their particles have been moved, moulded and conformed. They are no exceptions to the rule that God always geometrizes. Their problems of form are in the first instance mathematical problems, their problems of growth are essentially physical problems, and the morphologist is, ipso facto , a student of physical science. On Growth and Form Thomson, [Lord Kelvin] William (1824-1907) Fourier is a mathematical poem. Thoreau He is not a true man of science who does not bring some sympathy to his studies, and expect to learn something by behavior as well as by application. It is childish to rest in the discovery of mere coincidences, or of partial and extraneous laws. The study of geometry is a petty and idle exercise of the mind, if it is applied to no larger system than the starry one. Mathematics should be mixed not only with physics but with ethics; that is mixed mathematics. The fact which interests us most is the life of the naturalist. The purest science is still biographical.

No. 1072: PROBABILITY by John H. Lienhard Click here for audio of Episode 1072. Today, let's try to predict the future. The University of Houston's College of Engineering presents this series about the machines that make our civilization run, and the people whose ingenuity created them. W ell, no one can predict the future. We can only say what's likely to happen. That uncertainty has always left us uneasy. I suspect uneasiness is what kept us from inventing probability theory until the 1600s. Today, we take it for granted that the world is indeterminate, and we work within its fuzziness. We use laws of probability to write life insurance and to pull signals out of surrounding noise. But first we had to change the way we looked at things. When an English mathematician, Isaac Todhunter, wrote the history of probability in 1865, he found it'd been created by people wrestling with two great unpredictables of life with dice and death! When you roll dice, there's only one way to roll a two or a twelve, but six ways to roll a seven. The ancients played more complex games using three dice, not just two. Yet they wrote little about the likelihood of numbers. Dante touched on the dice question in his

home Archive CONTACT Isaac Todhunter '''Isaac Todhunter''' ( November 23 March 1 , 1884), was an English mathematician . The son of George Todhunter, a Nonconformist minister, he was born at Rye, Sussex. He was educated at Hastings , where his mother had opened a school after the death of his father in 1826. He became an assistant master at a school at Peckham , attending at the same time evening classes at the University College, London. In 1842 he obtained a mathematical scholarship and graduated as B.A. at London University , where he was awarded the gold medal on the M.A. examination. About this time he became mathematical master at a school at Wimbledon. In 1844 he entered St John's College, Cambridge , where he was senior wrangler in 1848, and gained the first Smith's prize and the Burney prize; and in 1849 he was elected to a fellowship, and began his life of College lecturer and private tutor. In 1862 he was made a fellow of the Royal Society , and in 1865 a member of the Mathematical Society of London. In 1871 he gained the Adams prize and was elected to the council of the Royal Society . He was elected honorary fellow of St John's in 1874, having resigned his fellowship on his marriage in 1864. In 1880 his eyesight began to fail, and shortly afterwards he was attacked with paralysis.
