| Abstract: |
Damodar Dharmananda Kosambi (1907–1966) was an eminent
mathematician, scientist, innovative Marxist, a maverick
scholar, and historian of contemporary India. Combining
both versatility and a certain sense of virtuosity Kosambi
made seminal contributions to a wide variety of disciplines
spread across from pure and applied mathematics to archaeology
and Indology. In the course of these writings he provided
an incisive analysis of various developments in science
and technology and novel perspectives onmany topics related
to mathematics (especially in number theory and statistics),
genetics and India’s past history, present concerns, and future
growth. |
