MacTutor History of Mathematics archive
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

Math History 4.7 Location and Timeline of Greek Mathematicians
We show a timeline of the lifespans of important mathematicians of the classical Greek period from 600 BCE (Thales) through 400 CE (Hypatia). We also show a map with the locations of thees Greek mathematicians.

The Animated History of Mathematics - Standing on the Shoulders of Mathematical Giants
Standing on the Shoulders of Mathematical Giants is an interactive exploration of the history of mathematics.
Each blue node represents a mathematician, placed geographically by birth. The further back a mathematician was born, the further from the earth the node is placed. Each white line signifies a connection between two mathematicians. The current date can be seen in the upper left hand corner.
Info:
The project takes a network theory approach to the study of the relationships between mathematicians through cultural history past. The dataset was extracted from the Mac Tutor website to produce a catalog that connects and categorises more than 2000 mathematicians over a three and half millennia time-span.

SUMMARY
=======
The MacTutor History of Mathematics archive is a website maintained by John J. O'Connor and Edmund F. Robertson and hosted by the University of St Andrews in Scotland. It contains detailed biographies on many historical and contemporary mathematicians, as well as information on famous curves and various topics in the history of mathematics.
The History of Mathematics archive was an outgrowth of Mathematical MacTutor system, a HyperCard database by the same authors, which won them the European Academic Software award in 1994. In the same year, they founded their web site. As of 2015 it has biographies on over 2800 mathematicians and scientists.In 2015, O'Connor and Robertson won the Hirst Prize of the London Mathematical Society for their work. The citation for the Hirst Prize calls the archive "the most widely used and influential web-based resource in history of mathematics".

Standing on the Shoulders of Mathematical Giants is an interactive exploration of the history of mathematics.
Each blue node represents a mathematician, placed geographically by birth. The further back a mathematician was born, the further from the earth the node is placed. Each white line signifies a connection between two mathematicians. The current date can be seen in the upper left hand corner.
Info:
The project takes a network theory approach to the study of the relationships between mathematicians through cultural history past. The dataset was extracted from the Mac Tutor website to produce a catalog that connects and categorises more than 2000 mathematicians over a three and half millennia time-span.
Huge gratitude to John J O'Connor and Edmund F Robertson for their unending dedication to the Mac Tutor website.
http://www-history.mcs.st-and.ac.uk/
http://www.fractalteapot.com
Standing on the Shoulders of Mathematical Giants was my dissertation submission for my undergrad in physics, 2009. Since its inception I have desired to share this insightful network graph with the world and now, 7 years on, I have finally dusted off the old code. Understandably, the dataset is falling behind the current MacTutor website, which, thanks to the outstanding work of John O’Connor’s and Edmund Robertson’s, now hosts over 2800 biographies. If there’s reasonable interest in the project – I’ll put some time into repopulating the dataset.
