| dc.description.abstract | Today applied mathematics in India finds itself in the no man's land between pure mathematics and theoretical physics. History shows that mathematics which has been invented in response to a specific problem brings a new vitality. This lecture describes the important role that applied mathematics has played and can continue to play and suggests ways of revitalising it in our teaching system. | en_US |
