Extractions: Grace Chisholm Young (18681944) This book includes essays on 43 women mathematicians, each essay consisting of a biographical sketch, a review/assessment of her work, and a bibliography which usually lists most of her mathematical works, a few works about her, and occasionally a few other references. The essays are arranged alphabetically by the women's best-known professional names. A better arrangement would have been by the periods within which the women worked; an approximation to that can be achieved by using the list in Appendix A of the included women ordered by birthdate. With its many appendices and its two good indexes, the bibliographic structure of this book is excellent. This together with its reviews of the work of many less-known women mathematicians makes it a valuable contribution to the history of mathematics.

Zonish Polyhedra As a consequence they are also equivalent to alicia boole stott's method 2 4of expansion of the seed polyhedron (or their dual rhombic polyhedra). http://www.georgehart.com/zonish/zonish.html
Extractions: The following is a webified version of: George W. Hart, "Zonish Polyhedra," Proceedings of Mathematics and Design '98 San Sebastian, Spain, June 1-4, 1998, p. 653. A previously unexamined class of geometric forms is presented which provides a rich storehouse of interesting designs and structures, e.g., for sculpture. They can be called "zonish polyhedra" because they have "zones" and include zonohedra as a special case, but generally are not zonohedra. A zonish polyhedron is the Minkowski sum of a "seed" polyhedron and a set of line segments. Unlike zonohedra, these polyhedra may be chiral and may have faces with an odd number of sides, e.g., triangles and pentagons. This paper presents a class of polyhedra which I do not believe has been examined before. They provide a rich source of interesting designs and structures, and are relatively easy to construct or to generate by a simple algorithm. For lack of a better term, my working name is "zonish" because these have zones, and include zonohedra as a special case, but generally are not zonohedra. Suggestions for a better term are welcome.

Creating Solid Networks a 4D polytope consisting of 120 truncated dodecahedra and 600 regular tetrahedra,first described in a 1910 paper written by alicia boole stott (a daughter of http://www.georgehart.com/solid-edge/solid-edge.html
Extractions: Claude Brute ed., Springer-Verlag, 2002) George W. Hart Several sculptures and designs illustrate an algorithmic technique for creating solid three-dimensional structures from an arrangement of line segments in space. Given a set of line segments, specified as a position in 3-dimensional space for each endpoint, a novel algorithm creates a volume-enclosing solid model of the segments. In this solid model, a prismatoid-like strut represents each segment. The method is very efficient with polygons and produces attractive lucid models in which the sides of the "prismatoids" are oriented in directions relevant to the structure. The algorithm is applicable to a wide range of structures to be realized by 3D printing techniques. As an artist of constructive geometric sculpture, I often visualize forms and then need to develop new techniques which enable me to create them. [5-10] This paper describes a new method for creating geometric structures which correspond to a given arrangement of line segments. The procedure is an essential step in my design of several recent sculptures.

Extractions: Sandwich Public Schools Introduction The Task HyperText Dictionary Have you ever heard of Hypatia or Agnesi. Odds are you haven't. Hypatia was stoned to death for her beliefs and when Agnesi had her book translated her theory was known as 'the witch of Agnesi'. These two women along with many more have made substantial contributions to the area of mathematics. The Association for Women in Mathematics has asked that a team be put together to enlighten the world to these important mathematicians. Individually you will become an expert on 1 mathematician. You will use your information to create a short biography. As a team you will use your individual research to create a timeline to show that women have been engaged in math for thousands of years. Then as a class you will create an all inclusive timeline. Using infromation you have gathered you will also use a world map to pinpoint the place of birth of your mathematician. In this WebQuest you will be working together with a group of students in class. Each group will answer the Task or Quest(ion). As a member of the group you will explore Webpages from people all over the world who care about Women in Mathematics. Because these are real Webpages we're tapping into, not things made just for schools, the reading level might challenge you. Feel free to use the online Webster dictionary or one in your classroom.

To get a better idea of just what these "polytopes" are, one should read H.S.M. Coxeter's "Regular Polytopes" . Briefly, plane polygons are two-dimensional polytopes, and polyhedra, three-dimensional polytopes. Where polygons are bounded by line segments, and polyhedra by polygons, a 4-polytope is bounded by polyhedra. Just as we may have any number of planes in three dimensions, in 4-space we may have any number of 3-spaces. Two 3-spaces might be a millionth of an inch apart and yet have no common point (thus the popular idea of parallel universes). It follows that, given a fixed direction in the 4-space, we can take solid sections of objects in the 4-space, perpendicular to that direction. If you find these concepts difficult, you are not alone. Even when a person is blessed with some extraordinary faculty for visualizing objects in higher spaceas was Alicia Boole Stott, a century agoit is a matter of years, and considerable patience, before much progress is made in the subject.

His audience includes a mixture of males and females. Professor Polymath's mouth moves and the audience takes notes as the narrator speaks.] NARRATOR: The eminent Professor Polymath recently gave a colloquium talk at Enormous State University on polytopes and Coxeter groups. As he gave some history during the introduction, he said, . . . PROF. POLYMATH: During the nineteenth century, this subject was studied by English gentlemen mathematicians and even a few housewives. [Many in the audience look aghast at this remark, while Professor Polymath continues to lecture inaudibly.

Extractions: With its almost overwhelmingly vast interior, PGE Park has always been an intimidating space for local artists. Voices echo off the concrete walls, the open sky looms overhead, and when there's a bad house there's a really bad house, with thousands upon thousands of empty seats stretching into the distance. The park has had a number of intimidated performers recently, because of the trouble selling tickets. Its current performance art series, Portland Beavers Baseball Season (a summer-long piece that is part of a string of sports-themed installations) has achieved mediocre crowds at best, which is really too bad. The piece, a nearly flawless replication of an actual minor league season starring a team called the Portland Beavers, is one of the most compelling artistic accomplishments this city has seen. It goes without saying that the "games" played during Season are incredibly realistic. Despite its small houses, the show has managed to make a strong impression on the locals. Much like

Extractions: There is little information on Hypatia, but what is known of this ancient mathematician certainly indicates that she was greatly regarded as a teacher and a scholar. The oldest accounts of Hypatia are in the Suda , a 10th-century encyclopedia alphabetically arranged and drawing on earlier sources. Other facts also come from the writings of the early Christian church, preserved letters from one of her pupils, Synesius, and the Latin compilation known as the Patrologiae Graecae Hypatia, born around 370 A.D., was the daughter of Theon, who was considered one of the most educated mathematicians and philosophers in Alexandria, Egypt. Theon, a well-known scholar and mathematics professor at the University of Alexandria, surrounded Hypatia with an environment of knowledge. It is said that Theon disciplined Hypatia not only in her education, but with a "physical routine that ensured a healthy body as well as a highly-functional mind" (3). There is evidence that Hypatia was regarded as physically beautiful and wore distinctive academic apparel.
