One of the fascinating books, "John von Neumann: Selected Letters", gives us a glimpse of the thinking von Neumann has about mathematics, physics, computer science, pure and applied sciences, science management, education, consulting, politics, and war. Readers of diverse backgrounds will find much interest in this first-hand look at one of the towering figures of twentieth-century science who integrated pure and applied sciences. #JohnVonNeumann #vonNeumann #Neumann #Polymath #SelectedLetters

von Neumann’s letter has it all: a discussion of the theory of spectra of Hermitian operators, inquiries about spin-geometries and not least of all, gossip. Lots of gossips. 🔗 https://www.cantorsparadise.com/john-von-neumanns-1935-letter-to-oswald-veblen-3acbe1b69098
