Furthermore, Modem practitioners of mathematics have been taught their mathematics by teachers who have been taught by teachers (who . etc.) who have been taught by mathematicians. In both senses, practitioners' mathematics can then be regarded as »applied mathematics«. - Wikipedia: Jens Egede Høyrup, born 1943 in Copenhagen, is a Danish historian of mathematics, specializing in pre-modern and early modern mathematics, ancient Mesopotamian mathematics in particular.
