Solving wigner’s mystery: The reasonable (though perhaps limited) effectiveness of mathematics in the natural sciences

The Viewpoint column offers mathematicians the opportunity to write about any issue of interest to the international mathematical community. Disagreement and controversy are welcome. The views and opinions expressed here, however, are exclusively those of the author, and neither the publisher nor the editor-in-chief endorses or accepts responsibility for them. Viewpoint should be submitted to the editor-in-chief, Chandler Davis.
