Summary/Abstract: The history of mathematics includes a number of blind mathematicians. A sighted mathematician generally works by sitting around scribbling on paper. So how do blind mathematicians work? They cannot rely on back of-the-envelope calculations, half -baked thoughts scribbled on restaurant napkins, or hand-waving arguments in which “this” attaches “there” and “that” intersects “here”. Still, in many ways, blind mathematicians work in much the same way as sighted mathematicians do.
