A Conversation on Professional Norms in Mathematics
Share this pageEdited by Mathilde Gerbelli-Gauthier; Pamela E. Harris; Michael A. Hill; Dagan Karp; Emily Riehl
The articles in this volume grew out of a 2019 workshop, held at Johns
Hopkins University, that was inspired by a belief that when
mathematicians take time to reflect on the social forces involved in
the production of mathematics, actionable insights result. Topics
range from mechanisms that lead to an inclusion-exclusion dichotomy
within mathematics to common pitfalls and better alternatives to how
mathematicians approach teaching, mentoring and communicating
mathematical ideas.
This collection will be of interest to students, faculty and
administrators wishing to gain a snapshot of the current state of
professional norms within mathematics and possible steps toward
improvements.
Readership
Undergraduate and graduate students and researchers interested in mathematical culture and society.
