After reading a lot of posts patronising Numb3rs I decided to have a taster. Regretfully in Spain was a total disaster (where’s our education system going?), and in Brazil, where I’m currently living, I think it’s on cable (however, from the last news appeared on press, the education system for maths is as bad as an 8th grader, about 14 years old, having problems calculating percentages). Well, but that’s not the point; the thing is I bought the First Season DVD Set and watched the first two chapters. Here we go!.

Minuses:

_ The acting is not very good…, I imagine… yet. It’s just the first two.

_ Why the mathematician has to be presented as a troubled mind?.

Pluses:

_ I liked the way maths is inserted into the action…, natural, we do use maths everyday and this is shown.

_ The most I liked was the way they try to introduce “humanity” within maths. I think our colleagues from INFORMS Section, Behavioral Process Management, will be happy.

Thanks! And remember, It’s just my opinion.

“To be or not to be, that is the question.”
To study an MBA for increasing my understanding of business management,
or to study an MSc on OR for increasing my understanding of business management.

which one will have better ROI?,

“To sleep, perchance to dream. Ay, there’s the rub,
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause. There’s the respect
That makes calamity of so long life,”
