Why noble prize is not for mathematicians |
|
Answer» The apocryphal ANSWER is that the Swedish mathematician Gosta Magnus Mittag-Leffler had an AFFAIR with ALFRED Nobel's love interest. INFURIATED by that, he decided to exclude MATHEMATICS as an awards category. ... Alfred Nobel wanted to award people for "practical" inventions. He thought mathematics was too theoretical. |
