Vladimir Igorevich Arnol'd (1937- )

"Many modern mathematical theories arose from problems in mechanics and only later acquired that axiomatic-abstract form which makes them so hard to study"

I am very happy, since I am teaching math students Classical Mechanics. I will use Arnol'd's Mathematical Methods of Classical Mechanics.

What a treat!
