This illustrated lecture and book launch will attempt to answer these questions by outlining his mathematical life, labours and legacy in the context of Victorian Oxford.
In the third of his three annual lectures, Joshua Rozenberg reports on what has been achieved so far and asks how close we are to delivering online justice.
What can we learn from history about how deeply the internet could transform news in the 21st century? And how does it relate to broader social and economic trends?
Euler’s pioneering equation, the ‘most beautiful equation in mathematics’, links the five most important constants in the subject: 1, 0, π, e and i. So what is this equation – and why is it pioneering?

Where should you stand in order to photograph the restored four chimneys of Battersea power station equally spaced along the skyline? - The answer will take us to the heart of the mathematical field of projective geometry.
Human-induced climate change is the greatest threat encountered by humanity. What is the latest evidence about what is happening to the global climate? What environment might our children face in 2100? What strategies might we use to make a difference?
