Описание
Mathematical Walks is a science education project initiated by the Institute for Information Transmission Problems of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Kharkevich Institute) and the Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology (Skoltech). The project was implemented during 2016 with the support of a number of Russia's leading media companies. Magazines, newspapers and Internet portals published interviews with leading Russian mathematicians and scientists working in fields related to mathematics.
Over 20 researchers were invited to be interviewed while strolling along the streets of Moscow and St. Petersburg, discussing maths, politics, music, poetry, the current status of academic research in Russia and abroad, and many other things. A few of the interviews, marked as "special issues," use a more traditional format.
This book is an English translation of the interviews. A lot of what they contain is specifically Russian, but that is part of their interest. We hope that the book will help a foreign reader to get a feeling for what Russian mathematicians talk about, what concerns them and what they aspire to. The careers of many of the interviewees overlap the Soviet and post-Soviet periods, so their memories take us on a "walk through time".
Start from the beginning or start in the middle. We guarantee that you will be drawn in. Join us for a walk!
Compiled by Inessa Grigaliunene.

I got this book as a present. As a person who is far from Math, I looked at this book with skepticism, but yet I decided to open it and read some lines. I was really amazed when I’ve found there a lot of stories of people instead of endless numbers and formulas as I thought. All these people are different, but Math and love to Math brings them closer together.
To be honest, I’ve understood that Math is not boring, but wide and interesting science. I am sure that we think that things which we don’t pay attention are not worthy of attention. But in this case we should look at these things from the position of people who do it, and we’ll understand the main advantages of these things.
