Abstract: Abstract My mother-in-law recently turned 85. Of course, that was a big event where math participated as well. In particular, I had the opportunity of talking a little bit about math in front of a large audience of very interested guests. One doesn’t always get such an opportunity. But what should I tell them? Well, I used a few good examples to explain the beauty of math. This is my speech.
