The unauthorized biography of Leonhard Euler (SciCast #462) (2021x51)

Data de estreia: Dez 03, 2021

You probably know only a small part of Leonhard Euler's scientific output. We won't blame you for not knowing all of the 866 books and articles that together came to represent approximately a third of the entire body of research in mathematics, physical theories and mechanical engineering published between the years 1726 and 1800. But there's much more to this episode than that. There are some rather peculiar details about the unique trajectory of this great scientist. Maybe some "hypotheses" about how some historical events had a little finger on the pulse of Euler (at least in the fanfics in our heads). Come and listen ;)
