| 概要 | A beautiful little book, certain to be treasured by several generations of mathematics lovers, by students and teachers so enlightened as to think of mathematics not as a forest of technical details b...t as the beautiful coherent creation of a richly diverse population of extraordinary people. In twenty chapters (which, though densely cross-linked, can be read in virtually any order) the author reviews the broad sweep of the issues in the principal topical sub- fields of mathematics. His writing is so luminous as to engage the interest of utter novices, yet so dense with particulars as to stimulate the imagination of professionals (even, on occasion, to instruct). Takes a broader view (and is more biographical) than either What is mathematics? (Courant and Robbins, 1941) or Geometry and the imagination (Hilbert and Cohn-Vossen, 1932), and is technically more specific that E.T. Bell's Men of mathematics (1937). Very attractively produced, with nice figures and an excellent bibliography. (NW) Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR続きを見る |
