Is maths still a tough nut to crack for some? You just need to make your way to the Garden of Archimedes, the new mathematics museum. A way to put the mission that the founders of the Accademia dei Lincei set themselves in the early 1600s within everyone's reach. The watchword is workshops, hands-on exhibits and guided tours. Among the permanent exhibitions, is one dedicated to Archimedes, another to Galileo and one to Leonardo Pisano, one of the first to introduce the Arab system in the West.
