He also points out that, although British pupils are worse than their East Asian counterparts at arithmetic, they are better at higher-order mathematical skills such as geometry and handling data.
According to Reviel Netz, a classicist at Stanford University who is working on the palimpsest, the original uncorrected diagrams suggest that Archimedes was more concerned with the mathematical arguments his geometry gave rise to than with the real-world behaviour of the objects he wrote about.
But whatever the geometry, this should not be seen as a stop-gap multi-speed Europe, with leaders and laggards, pioneers and free-riders, the bold and the pusillanimous.
Her cropped blonde hair and honey-toned skin offered a much-needed reprieve from the dress's stark geometry.
