Abstract

The goal of this writing is to consider only that of geometry, which has common cultural worth, and therefore, justifies that it be taught also to people that do not have an aptitude for mathematics, and in their further life will not come in contact with mathematics, nor with its applications.

Tatiana Afanassjewa, What can and should geometry education offer a non-mathematician? (1924).

by

T. Ehrenfest-Afanassjeewa.

Translated by P. M. A. van Wierst.
