i love mathematics
評分good read, and a good waste of time to read as well
評分雖然這本書對我來說已經意義不大瞭,但強力推薦給中學生和本科生看
評分對數學基本概念和方法的闡述真的是 crystal clear,選材不能更棒!忽然又來瞭再去打打看分析論的興緻!
評分i love mathematics
R·柯朗(Richard Courant)是20世紀傑齣的數學傢,哥廷根學派重要成員。他生前是紐約大學數學係和數學科學研究院的主任,該研究院後被重命名為柯朗數學科學研究院。他寫的書《數學物理方程》為每一個物理學傢所熟知;而他的《微積分學》已被認為是近代寫得最好的該學科的代錶作。
H·羅賓(Herbert Robbins)是新澤西拉特傑斯大學的數理統計教授。
I·斯圖爾特(Ian Stewart)是沃裏剋大學的數學教授,並且是《自然界中的數和上帝玩色子遊戲嗎》一書的作者;他還在《科學美國人》雜誌上主編《數學娛樂》專欄;他因使科學為大眾理解的傑齣貢獻而在1995年獲得瞭皇傢協會的米凱勒法拉第奬章。
For more than two thousand years a familiarity with mathematics has been regarded as an indispensable part of the intellectual equipment of every cultured person. Today, unfortunately, the traditional place of mathematics in education is in grave danger. The teaching and learning of mathematics has degenerated into the realm of rote memorization, the outcome of which leads to satisfactory formal ability but does not lead to real understanding or to greater intellectual independence. This new edition of Richard Courant's and Herbert Robbins's classic work seeks to address this problem. Its goal is to put the meaning back into mathematics. Written for beginners and scholars, for students and teachers, for philosophers and engineers, What is Mathematics?, Second Edition is a sparkling collection of mathematical gems that offers an entertaining and accessible portrait of the mathematical world. Covering everything from natural numbers and the number system to geometrical constructions and projective geometry, from topology and calculus to matters of principle and the Continuum Hypothesis, this fascinating survey allows readers to delve into mathematics as an organic whole rather than an empty drill in problem solving. With chapters largely independent of one another and sections that lead upward from basic to more advanced discussions, readers can easily pick and choose areas of particular interest without impairing their understanding of subsequent parts. Brought up to date with a new chapter by Ian Stewart, What is Mathematics?, Second Edition offers new insights into recent mathematical developments and describes proofs of the Four-Color Theorem and Fermat's Last Theorem, problems that were still open when Courant and Robbins wrote this masterpiece, but ones that have since been solved. Formal mathematics is like spelling and grammar--a matter of the correct application of local rules. Meaningful mathematics is like journalism--it tells an interesting story. But unlike some journalism, the story has to be true. The best mathematics is like literature--it brings a story to life before your eyes and involves you in it, intellectually and emotionally. What is Mathematics is like a fine piece of literature--it opens a window onto the world of mathematics for anyone interested to view.
最近在学习数学,原本的目的是为了训练自己的逻辑思维,但通过这本书让我看到数学特有的美感:简洁,一气呵成的连贯推理,并且充满着创意。 很遗憾大四了才开始对数学有那么一点重视,也算是走了弯路之后对数学的一种回归学习。曾经经历过寻找书籍的过程,一路走来,让...
評分这本书大概是我不可能看完的一本书了,所以还是现在写书评吧。 我是经济学的本硕,数学相当一般,考研的时候曾经温习过,后来就求求最值、用用最小二乘法、T分布、正态分布数值特征什么的了。其他的很少用,也很少涉及。 重新温习是因为看衍生品定价的时候,确实感觉非常困难...
評分随着科学技术的数学化,以及定量化方法和计算机的普及,有史以来,数学从来没有像现在这样受到社会各行各业人员的广泛关注。数学正影响着整个人类思考问题的方式。越来越多的人都渴望了解“什么是数学”的问题。 R·柯朗(1888—1972)等人的数学普及的经典名...
評分我花了两天时间把这本书大致看完了,不过习题没有做。我觉得这本书比较适合两类人: 一是上完高一要升高二的理科生,并且比较喜欢数学的。这时可能会有一定的困难,因为这本书要求你读很多课外知识才会更好的理解,但是我们的教育体制并不很提倡学生读课外读物...
評分昨晚看了一个小时,从11页看到12页,没看懂,睡觉了。梦里出现的全是数目字,早晨睁开眼忽然想通了。。。 这就是一个数盲的数学之旅~~~ 坐在那吭哧吭哧地排12进制乘法表,忍不住在心里高呼:啊,相比起懂得数学的人,我看到的世界是多么狭窄和死板啊!!! 希望能一直把...
