Aim :
a) to show genuine mathematics ( and mathematicians) as a science that is not only in full activity but which has a long, rich history ;
b) to highlight the dual nature of mathematics, as abstract research close to poetry and as tool for understanding and acting on the world ;
c) lastly and most importantly, to make people want to know more, to awake curiosity rather than to give an authoritarian and scholarly lecture, to offer a painless introduction to mathematics and facilitate the access of as many as possible to mastery of a scientific and technical culture that is today inescapable.
The series consists of 6 episodes of 13'
