SUMMARY:Ethics for the working mathematician\, seminar 2: The allure of ma
 thematics. - Maurice Chiodo (University of Cambridge)

DESCRIPTION:What motivates us as mathematicians? Ours is one of the few pr
 ofessions where we enjoy our job so much that we'd probably do it for free
 . Our dedication and determination to solve mathematical problems is one o
 f our greatest strengths\, but can also be our undoing. Our ability for ex
 treme focus is a double-edged sword\; on the one hand it makes us excellen
 t problem solvers\, on the other hand it restricts our capacity to see the
  broader implications and consequences of our work.
