Leonardo Bonacci detto il Fibonacci (Pisa, settembre 1170 circa – Pisa, 1242 circa) è stato un matematico italiano. È considerato uno dei più grandi matematici di tutti i tempi. Con altri dell'epoca contribuì alla rinascita delle scienze esatte dopo la decadenza dell'età tardo-antica e dell'Alto Medioevo. Con lui, in Europa ci fu l'unione fra i procedimenti della geometria greca euclidea (gli Elementi) e gli strumenti matematici di calcolo elaborati dalla scienza islamica. Leggi di più su Wikipedia
