The language of science, like the language of music or architecture, is a special sign system endowed with philosophical meaning. Not everyone is able to understand musical harmony, not everyone will discern the ancient grace and symbolism of a simple formula. Meanwhile, Plato believed that anyone who is able to appreciate the eternal and perfect beauty of the mathematical sciences “has a desire to reproduce it - not biologically, but intellectually, to be ‘unburdened’ with beautiful ideas and theories.” And the scientists inspired by her became the heroes of this book. Just look at “Mandelbrot’s fractals with their exquisite patterns”, Emmy Noether’s abstract algebra or Gödel’s timeless universe.
