Mathematical modelling is the art (or science) of representing a physical reality as abstract models which are accessible to analysis and calculation. Numerical analysis allows us to calculate the solutions of these models on a computer. Translated by Alan Craig. ...more

Among the eye-opening questions he discusses: why it is that wasps will not sting you if you stay still; whether images of murderers really can be recovered from their victims' retinas; what use tests for colour blindness might or might not be; how Leonardo da Vinci misunderstood how the optic nerve worked; and whether 'X-ray goggles' can be created. ...more
