This comprehensive examination delves into the mathematics, physics, and philosophy of Henri Poincaré (1854-1912), a remarkably inventive and versatile mathematician, leading physicist, and influential philosopher of science. Poincaré's groundbreaking contributions sparked significant debates and continue to impact society today. Math historian Jeremy Gray highlights Poincaré's wide-ranging influence, particularly his novel interpretation of non-Euclidean geometry, which challenged existing notions of space and spurred extensive research. His pioneering work in topology laid the foundation for modern studies, notably culminating in the resolution of the famous Poincaré conjecture. Additionally, his reformulation of celestial mechanics and discovery of chaotic motion were pivotal in developing the modern theory of dynamical systems. In physics, Poincaré's insights into the Lorentz group predated Einstein's theories, and he was among the first to suggest that space and time might be fundamentally atomic. A public intellectual, Poincaré engaged in scientific controversies, defending mathematics against logicians like Bertrand Russell, opposing Catholic apologists, and serving as an expert witness in the Dreyfus case that divided France. Richly informed by letters and documents, this exploration reveals how Poincaré's work revolutionized mathematics, science, and the broader world.

An account of the major work of Janos Bolyai, a nineteenth-century mathematician who set the stage for the field of non-Euclidean geometry. Janos Bolyai (1802-1860) was a mathematician who changed our fundamental ideas about space. As a teenager he started to explore a set of nettlesome geometrical problems, including Euclid's parallel postulate, and in 1832 he published a brilliant twenty-four-page paper that eventually shook the foundations of the 2000-year-old tradition of Euclidean geometry. Bolyai's Appendix (published as just that--an appendix to a much longer mathematical work by his father) set up a series of mathematical proposals whose implications would blossom into the new field of non-Euclidean geometry, providing essential intellectual background for ideas as varied as the theory of relativity and the work of Marcel Duchamp. In this short book, Jeremy Gray explains Bolyai's ideas and the historical context in which they emerged, were debated, and were eventually recognized as a central achievement in the Western intellectual tradition. Intended for nonspecialists, the book includes facsimiles of Bolyai's original paper and the 1898 English translation by G. B. Halstead, both reproduced from copies in the Burndy Library at MIT.

Cet ouvrage raconte l'histoire des 23 problèmes que le grand mathématicien allemand David Hilbert a proposés à la sagacité des mathématiciens lors d'un congrès à Paris, en 1900. Ces problèmes ont considérablement influencé la recherche en mathématiques depuis cette date. Jeremy Gray propose une vision générale du développement des mathématiques de la fin du XIX e siècle à nos jours. Pour ce faire, il a replacé les mathématiques dans leur contexte historique, social et culturel. On trouve ainsi de nombreux développements sur différentes écoles de mathématiques : Bourbaki en France, l'école soviétique, les mathématiques aux Etats-Unis... et des notices biographiques sur de grands mathématiciens. Les problèmes sont présentés sans formalisme excessif (quelques compléments mathématiques sont présentés en encarts), ce qui rend le texte accessible à un large lectorat . Pierre Cartier présente en Introduction à la version française de ce livre : «les défis relevés par les mathématiciens de l'ère "post-hilbertienne"».
