The Minds of Modern Mathematics app brings you on a journey of 1000 years of the history of Mathematics spanning 1000-1960. It is filled with historical images, facts and biographies.
There are more than 500 biographies, milestone and nice facts for users to click thru. There is also a high-resolution image of the original timeline poster from the 1964 World’s fair. The app also has an “IBM Mathematics Peep Show,” that features short animated films by Charles and Ray Eames that offer lessons on mathematical concepts, from exponents to the way ancient Greeks measured the earth.
