Abstract

In dit boekje verkennen we twee problemen, de verdubbeling van de kubus en de driedeling van een hoek, waarvoor men sinds de Oude Grieken naar een constructie met enkel passer en ongemarkeerde liniaal heeft gezocht. Het blijkt dat deze problemen niet met passer-en-liniaalconstructies op te lossen zijn. Ze zijn dat wel als we één extra hulpmiddel toelaten: de neusislat. Het gebruik hiervan ontsluit een deel van de wiskunde dat we met GeoGebra dynamisch kunnen verkennen. In het tweede deel van het boekje tonen we aan waarom een passer-en-liniaalconstructie voor deze problemen niet mogelijk is en ook waarom je op die manier geen zevenhoek kan construeren. Eeuwenoude meetkunde krijgt een ander, moderner kleedje http://www.epsilon-uitgaven.nl/Z41.php

Abstract

In this pioneering work, based upon interviews with many of the surviving protagonists, Cornelis ('Cees') Andriesse tells the story of the role that Dutch publishing houses played in the rise of English language commercial science publishing after the Second World War, that was preceded by the decline of science publishing in German. Using the existing literature as well as many privately held archival sources, the author follows the fortunes of the leading publishers, Martinus Nijhoff, Elsevier and North Holland while also briefly discussing smaller houses like Dr. W. Junk and Reidel. The book contains lively portraits of the main characters involved and will no doubt stimulate further research and discussion of the role of publishing in the history of science. The authors’ main thesis that successful publishing requires a strong, fruitful partnership between an academic publisher and an academic editor, will no doubt convince most readers. This is a great book on the most productive friendships and partnerships in the history of science publishing.
