Promoting mathematics via banknotes: two examples from Turkey
Özet
Turkey's 2009 series of banknotes feature six eminent scholarly figures, with at least two of interest to a mathematical audience. We lay these mathematicians within a historical context, and provide a short summary of how they have contributed to the country's promotion and revival of scientific knowledge. Such campaigns lead to an increased awareness for both mathematics and mathematicians in the general audience, and can also be an effective strategy in boosting public opinion of the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines.
