       Reality in Perspective: The 'Art of Optics' and the 
       'Science of Painting' -- The Role of Perspective in the 
       Transformation of European Culture -- Visual 
       DifferentialGeometry and Beltrami's Hyperbolic Plane.-All 
       Done by Mirrors: Symmetries, Quaternions, Spinors, and

       Imaginaires: The Origins of Complex Numbers in the Late 
       Renaissance -- Random, Complex, and Quantum. 
520    Like linear perspective, complex numbers and probability 
       are notable discoveries of the Renaissance. History has 
       been quick to recognize the crucial impact of linear 
       perspective on painting, but reluctant to acknowledge the 
       importance of complex numbers and probability. Both were 
       treated with a great deal of suspicion by the scientific 
       establishment and overlooked for many years. It was only 
       in the twentieth century, when quantum theory defined the 
       notion of "complex probability amplitude", that complex 
       numbers merged with probability and transformed the image 
       of the physical world. From a theoretical point of view, 
       however, the space opened to painting by linear 
       perspective and the space opened to science by complex 
       numbers are equally valuable and share significant 
       characteristics. By exploring that common ground, The Art 
       of Science will lead the reader to complement Leonardo's 
       vision of painting as a science and to see science as an 
       art. Its aim is to restore a visual dimension to 
       mathematical sciences - an element dulled, if not obscured,
       by historians, philosophers, and scientists themselves
