The Encyclopedia of Mathematics and Society

Greenwald, S.J. and Thomley, J.E. (Eds). (2011). The Encyclopedia of Mathematics and Society, Vols. 1-3. Pasadena, CA: Salem Press. ISBN: 978-1-58765-844-0, e-ISBN: 978-1-58765-848-8

The goal of The Encyclopedia of Mathematics and Society is to weave multilayered connections between society, history, people, applications, and mathematics … In general, the articles do not teach or present detailed mathematical theory, derivations, and equations … Instead, we intended them to serve as a foundation and jumping-off point for additional explorations. As mathematics professor and educator Art Johnson has noted in other settings, we hope that this type of contextualization helps people to “see mathematics as a discipline that transcends culture, time, and gender, and as a discipline for everyone, everywhere.” (Introduction, p. x)

“This enlightening, well-written set, which has no current competitors, is highly recommended for all public and academic libraries. The material offers an entirely new way of looking at things.” — Library Journal Best Reference, 2011

Digital access to the Encyclopedia of Mathematics and Society is available through the ASU Library.
