Dear colleagues,

It is with great pleasure that I announce the publication of the book
"*Framing Global Mathematics: The International Mathematical *
*Union between Theorems and Politics*”
by Norbert Schappacher (Springer, Cham, 2022).

Schappacher's book provides the most comprehensive and exciting take on the
history of the
IMU since Olli Lehto's "Mathematics without borders, a history of the
International Mathematical Union”,
and more broadly analyzes the historical context of today's mathematics and
its place in world culture.
It is available in open access and can be freely downloaded from here
<https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-95683-7>.

The origins of this project date back to 2019, when – following a call made
to all AOs
(see AO CL 10/2019
<https://www.mathunion.org/fileadmin/IMU/Publications/CircularLetters/2019-2020/IMU%20AO%20CL%2010_2019.pdf>)
– the IMU solicited the writing of a book to mark the occasion of the
centennial
of the founding of the IMU in 1920. The project is generously sponsored by
the Klaus Tschira Foundation.

Please help promote this book in the mathematics community of your country.

Regards
Helge Holden
