Mathematical Association 150th Anniversary Article Collection
The free-to-view articles in this special anniversary collection have been chosen to illustrate a diversity of topics in pure and applied mathematics, ranging from the history of mathematics to pedagogy, from geometry to problem solving, and from sport to knitting. Several feature in the list of the most popular Gazette downloads from Cambridge Core. The authors include some of the most celebrated mathematicians of our time and four are past Presidents of the Association.
It is to be hoped that these will provide a taste of the breadth of material which has made The Mathematical Gazette a point of reference in good writing about mathematics for the last 127 years and a jewel in the crown of the 150 year old Mathematical Association.
