图书简介
World War I heavily affected academic life. In European countries, many talented researchers and students were killed in action and scientific activities were halted to resume only in the postwar years. However, this inhibition turned out to be a catalyst for the birth of a new generation of mathematicians, for the emergence of new ideas and theories and for the surprising creation of new and outstanding scientific schools. The Development of Mathematics Between the World Wars traces the transformation of scientific life within mathematical communities during the interwar period in Central and Eastern Europe, specifically in Germany, Russia, Poland, Hungary, and Czechoslovakia. The final four chapters are not restricted to Central and Eastern Europe and deal with the development of mathematics between World War I and World War II. After describing the general state of mathematics at the end of the 19th century and the first third of the 20th century, three case studies dealing with selected mathematical disciplines are presented (set theory, potential theory, combinatorics), in a way accessible to a broad audience of mathematicians as well as historians of mathematics. Key Features • No title with the same scope is available in English • A unique feature of the book is the emphasis (in the first eight chapters) on the situation in Central and Eastern European countries • The last four chapters deal with the history of various branches of mathematics. Other sources devoted to the history of these branches are usually intended for specialists and cover much longer historical periods; on the other hand, we provide a more detailed treatment of the interwar period with a more general readership in mind
