Abstract: this article writes: "Which half of his brains did Bourbaki use ?
My impression is, the left half. Perhaps I am projecting. The Bourbachistes were uncomfortable with the right-brain
mathematics of the Italian geometers, and for good reason: significant portions were suspect and might, if one takes
`true' and `false' to be left-brain notions and `right' and `wrong' to be right-brain ones, be justifiably described as
right, but false. (Update)
