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 546 English. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed August 5, 2014). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Art and science.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85007974 650 0 Science|xPhilosophy.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85118582 650 0 Science|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects /sh85118570 650 7 Art and science.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 815430 650 7 Science|xPhilosophy.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1108336 650 7 Science.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1108176 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 ART|xSubjects & Themes|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 Lupacchini, Rossella,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n96004882|eeditor. 700 1 Angelini, Annarita,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ nb99154685|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrinted edition:|z9783319021102 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=816540|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
