Reviel Netz (born January 2, 1968, in Tel Aviv, Israel) is an Israeli scholar of the history of pre-modern mathematics, who is currently a professor of classics and of philosophy at Stanford University.

Life and work

Netz was born January 2, 1968, to Israeli author {{ill|Corinna Hasofferett|he|קורינה הסופרת}} and Yoel Netz, an entrepreneur and translator of Russian classics.

From 1983 to 1992, Netz studied at the Tel Aviv University, obtaining a B.A. in Ancient History and an M.A. in History and the Philosophy of Science; from 1993 to 1995 studied classics at Christ College, Cambridge University, where he obtained his doctorate in 1995. From 1996 to 1999 Netz worked as a post-doctoral research fellow at Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge University, and concurrently in 1998 and 1999 worked as a post-doctoral fellow at MIT. In the fall of 1999 he took a position as an assistant professor in the Stanford University Department of Classics, where he has continued to teach and publish today.[1][2]

Netz's major research interest include the wider issues of the history of cognitive practices; for example the history of the book, visual culture, literacy and numeracy. He is the author of a number of works in field, including volumes I and II of The Archimedes Palimpsest. He also co-authored The Archimedes Codex with William Noel on the same subject matter, but oriented towards a public audience. It received the Neumann Prize[3] as well as several works published by the Cambridge University Press, including The Shaping of Deduction in Greek Mathematics: a Study in Cognitive History (1999, Runciman Award), The Transformation of Early Mediterranean Mathematics: From Problems to Equations (2004), and Ludic Proof: Greek Mathematics and the Alexandrian Aesthetic (2009).

Netz has also appeared as a subject matter expert on PBS's Nova concerning ancient mathematics.[4]

In addition to his work on the history of mathematics, Netz has published some Hebrew poetry, including "Adayin Bahuc" in 1999.
