A Mathematician's Apology pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
G. H. Hardy was one of this century's finest mathematical thinkers, renowned among his contemporaries as a 'real mathematician the purest of the pure'. He was also, as C. P. Snow recounts in his Foreword, 'unorthodox, eccentric, radical, ready to talk about anything'. This 'apology', written in 1940 as his mathematical powers were declining, offers a brilliant and engaging account of mathematics as very much more than a science; when it was first published, Graham Greene hailed it alongside Henry James's notebooks as 'the best account of what it was like to be a creative artist'. C. P. Snow's Foreword gives sympathetic and witty insights into Hardy's life, with its rich store of anecdotes concerning his collaboration with the brilliant Indian mathematician Ramanujan, his aphorisms and idiosyncrasies, and his passion for cricket. This is a unique account of the fascination of mathematics and of one of its most compelling exponents in modern times.

評分 評分 評分(注:同样内容在amazon.cn发表过,稍作修改) 近日花了些时间读了遍原文《A Mathematician's Apology》,又读了遍这本译文,与某书友的评述感觉正好相反,翻译得不错! // 特别是关于“不常见的人名“翻译注释,喜欢,如象棋手阿廖欣,棒球手,社交名人,一开始Hardy与之争...
評分想看此书的读者最好作如下两个选择:1。看原版(湖南科学技术出版社有,不过那书把目录里的序言作者名字写错了,唉……),体会一下HARDY的英文水平;2。看李文林教授的翻译版本(有个出版社出了系列的数学大家文选),脱离数学大环境单纯阅读文本有些味道就体会不出来了。 ...
