In 'Il matematico impertinente', Piergiorgio Odifreddi deploys an arsenal of rational arguments on politics, religion, literature, philosophy, and science. The author challenges ingrained notions, inviting reflection on our relationship with technology, our African roots, and the importance of mathematical and scientific culture in contemporary life. With a provocative style, Odifreddi questions conventional truths and stimulates a critical debate on the pillars of today's society.
Piergiorgio Odifreddi is an Italian mathematician, logician, scholar of the history of science, and popular science writer and essayist, especially on philosophical atheism as a member of the Italian Union of Rationalist Atheists and Agnostics. He is philosophically and politically near to Bertrand Russell and Noam Chomsky.
