Here is the classic, much-read introduction to the craft and history of mathematics by E.T. Bell, a leading figure in mathematics in America for half a century. Men of Mathematics accessibly explains the major mathematics, from the geometry of the Greeks through Newton's calculus and on to the laws of probability, symbolic logic, and the fourth dimension. In addition, the book goes beyond pure mathematics to present a series of engrossing biographies of the great mathematicians -- an extraordinary number of whom lived bizarre or unusual lives. Finally, Men of Mathematics is also a history of ideas, tracing the majestic development of mathematical thought from ancient times to the twentieth century. This enduring work's clear, often humorous way of dealing with complex ideas makes it an ideal book for the non-mathematician.
Eric Temple Bell was born in 1883 in Aberdeen, Scotland. His early education was obtained in England. Coming to the United States in 1902, he entered Stanford University and took his A.B. degree in 1904. In 1908 he was teaching fellow at the University of Washington, where he took his A.M. degree in 1909. In 1911 he entered Columbia University, where he took his Ph.D. degree in 1912. He returned to the University of Washington as instructor in mathematics and became full professor in 1921. During the summers of 1924-28 he taught at the University of Chicago, and in 1926 (first half) at Harvard University, when he was appointed Professor of Mathematics at the California Institute of Technology.
Dr. Bell was a former President of the Mathematical Association of America, a former Vice President of the American Mathematical Society and of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He was on the editorial staffs of the Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, the American Journal of Mathematics, and the Journal of the Philosophy of Science. He belonged to The American Mathematical Society, the Mathematical Association of America, the Circolo Matematico di Palermo, the Calcutta Mathematical Society, Sigma Xi, and Phi Beta Kappa, and was a member of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States. He won the Bôcher Prize of the American Mathematical Society for his research work. His twelve published books include The Purple Sapphire (1924), Algebraic Arithmetic (1927), Debunking Science, and Queen of the Sciences (1931), Numerology (1933), and The Search for Truth (1934).
Dr. Bell died in December 1960, just before the publication of his latest book, The Last Problem.

读了这本书,再次深深地意识到,数学,真的是需要天赋的,仿佛有些人的大脑天生就是为数学而长的。 我相信,世界上95%以上的人是惧怕数学的,也就是说我们绝大多数人的大脑还是基本一样的。而偏有些人,大脑简直不是人的大脑,古的比如欧几里得、阿基米德、毕达哥拉斯……后来...
评分我超喜欢高斯,他绝伦的天才古今无人能超越,计算能力近乎欧拉,创新灵感无穷无尽,集实践与理论于一身,古典数学的最后一人,现代数学的第一人,第一个严格主义者,内蕴微分几何的创始人,双曲几何第一人,椭圆函数第一人,最小二乘法第一人,很多很多数学发明的第一人,19世...
评分突然想起来,为啥现在的我跟那些天才差距那么大: 他们都在不停的思考啊,可我呢,天天游戏,或许生活丰富了,也会失去很多的吧。 原本计划每天看10个小时书的,可真正做到又有几天呢? 我原来也是一个俗人啊,羞愧下:( 其实看书不必要这么久,还要思考,不然,就成一个书呆...

评分所有通向人类伟大的创造力的因素中最强大的是什么,是人的思维。 E·T·贝尔所著《数学精英》向我们展示了人类中最伟大的数学家的思维历程。 数学,自然科学的的无冕之王。那些伟大的哲学家们把他当成自然界的最奇妙的语言。的确,自然界的规律如此美妙,人类发明了现在的数学...
