about

The Mathematician -- The Bould Georgie Boole (long version) performed by The Arthur Céilí Band, featuring Jim Flanagan & Mike Simpson. The full 8 verses!

An affectionate tribute to Engllish mathematician George Boole (1815-1864), who laid the foundations of the digital age. Note: 2 Nov 2015 marks the bicentennial of his birth, and he spent a significant part of his career as Prof of Maths at Queen's College, Cork.
