Getting into math, Euclid – D7


After what I like to call a horrible day, today was pretty chill. We had a lot of individual work, which was great to free my mind, and after lunch we had a dialogue on Euclid’s preface (editor’s preface to be precise). It was not interesting at all. I think it was because I was so sleepy and talking about a math book’s preface made by the editor was not that encouraging either. I took something really positive though. It was a reflection about how people are willing to protect something really valuable for mankind, such as Euclid’s geometry books. Can you imagine how many people participated in keeping that book safe? So you can later say: “Well, screw that book, I don’t like math anyways”?
