Praise for William Dunham s Journey Through Genius The Great Theorems of Mathematics "Dunham deftly guides the reader through the verbal and logical intricacies of major mathematical questions and proofs, conveying a splendid sense of how the greatest mathematicians from ancient to modern times presented their arguments." Ivars Peterson Author, The Mathematical Tourist Mathematics and Physics Editor, Science News "It is mathematics presented as a series of works of art; a fascinating lingering over individual examples of ingenuity and insight. It is mathematics by lightning flash." Isaac Asimov "It is a captivating collection of essays of major mathematical achievements brought to life by the personal and historical anecdotes which the author has skillfully woven into the text. This is a book which should find its place on the bookshelf of anyone interested in science and the scientists who create it." R. L. Graham, AT&T Bell Laboratories "Come on a time-machine tour through 2,300 years in which Dunham drops in on some of the greatest mathematicians in history. Almost as if we chat over tea and crumpets, we get to know them and their ideas ideas that ring with eternity and that offer glimpses into the often veiled beauty of mathematics and logic. And all the while we marvel, hoping that the tour will not stop." Jearl Walker, Physics Department, Cleveland State University Author of The Flying Circus of Physics
William Dunham,俄亥俄州立大學碩士和博士畢業,現為美國穆倫堡學院教授,世界知名的數學史專傢。他分彆於1992年、1997年、2006年獲得美國數學協會頒發的George Polya奬、Trevor Evans 奬和Lester R. Ford奬。Dunham教授著述頗豐,除本書外,還著有《The Mathematical Universe: An Alphabetical Journey Through the Great Proofs, Problems, and Personalities》(數學那些事兒:思想、發現、人物和曆史)等廣受好評的科普著作。
我一向不抵触数学,但谈不上喜欢它。 这本书的扉页上写着“它会让热爱数学的人体会到绝处逢生的喜悦,让讨厌数学的人从此爱上数学。”我觉得不然,它并不是一本魔法书,把讨厌的情感变为喜欢。它只是向我们展示了数学最本质的美丽,而这种美,从来都是在的。它藏匿于一道道使我...
評分伟大的天才,美妙的定理;完整的脉络,深刻的背景;清晰的逻辑,流畅的文笔。 内容: 阿基米德的积分方法,海伦公式的证明;牛顿、莱布尼茨、伯努利、欧拉对级数的计算;康托比较无穷集的方法等。 感想: 引用其他书友的感受:原来教科书上那些看似简单的定理甚至定义,是几代...
評分数学是我的弱项,虽然初中当了三年数学课代表,但是,考试分数总是在及格线徘徊,不是不努力,而是实在无感。不知道哪天脑子一热,想回炉一下数学。别人推荐了威廉·邓纳姆的《天才引导的历程》。这个书名,看起来有些鸡汤,不能完全地代表本书的价值。 对于菜鸟来说...
評分这本书我买了四年了。 是一位朋友当时向我推荐了一列书单,我也没仔细看,就照着书单从网上一一买了回来。这本书我没看到新书,还是在孔夫子买的九成新。 书送到了,我拆开包装随手翻看的时候,当即傻眼了!电光火石之间我只看到各种几何图形各种方程式,已知未知XYZ,简直哭...
評分7年前,偶然的相遇让我从此离不开这本书,他成了我开始思考人生的最重要的催化剂。不曾完整的读完一遍,因为我觉得在那些大师面前,我粗浅的阅读会亵渎这些经典。但书中让我领略的超过时代的,国界的,种族的数学王国是那样的让人留恋,以致于无论身在何处我都将其随身携带于...
