Bell able to do something with it O. Heaviside Mathematics is a tool for thought. A highly necessary tool in a world where both feedback and non· Iinearities abound. Similarly, all kinds of parts of mathematics serve as tools for other parts and fO! other sciences. Applying a simple rewriting rule to the quote on the right above one finds such statements as: 'One service topology has rendered mathematical physics .. .'; 'One service logic has rendered com· puter science ... .'; 'One service category theory has rendered mathematics .. .'. All arguably true. And all statements obtainable this way form part of the raison d'etre of this series.
