À travers un voyage aux quatre coins du monde avec les plus grands mathématiciens dont Cédric Villani (Médaille Fields 2010). Comment j'ai détesté les maths nous raconte comment les mathématiques ont bouleversé notre monde, pour le meilleur… et parfois pour le pire.
What is striking when you talk with mathematicians is that sparkle in their eyes, and their sudden joyful voice trying to share with you a concept, a theory. They continuously use words such as invention, beauty, freedom. You then ask yourself : how such a rich language, this quasi-philosophical proposition about the world becomes rejected by a majority, 'the only discipline where one prides itself to be bad at it'! But for 40 years, mathematicians have become essential in sickness and in health!
