The Princeton Companion to Mathematics
内容简介:
This is a one-of-a-kind reference for anyone with a serious interest in mathematics. Edited by Timothy Gowers, a recipient of the Fields Medal, it presents nearly two hundred entries, written especially for this book by some of the world’s leading mathematicians, that introduce basic mathematical tools and vocabulary; trace the development of modern mathematics; explain essential terms and concepts; examine core ideas in major areas of mathematics; describe the achievements of scores of famous mathematicians; explore the impact of mathematics on other disciplines such as biology, finance, and music–and much, much more.
作者简介:
Timothy Gowers is the Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge. He received the Fields Medal in 1998, and is the author of Mathematics: A Very Short Introduction. June Barrow-Green is lecturer in the history of mathematics at the Open University. Imre Leader is professor of pure mathematics at the University of Cambridge.

小鸥03-09第一章中有一节Some Fundamental Mathematical Definitions,由现代数学最主要的四种数讲起,他们是代数的主角。然后站高些看看数到底是一种什么结构,又有那些相似或同理的非数字结构,如何人为的造出一些结构来做实验,验证我们脑袋里的一些假设性的问题,以及有了这些代数研究对象后其互相影响互动的机制。接着是与代数采用了完全不同的办法解决问题的数学分析。代数要的是逻辑推理出的质的抽象结论,分析则更关注如何更准确的量的描述一个具体的对象。最后一部分是关于几何的,关注人对图像进行思考的角度以及由此引出的各种解惑之道。

感冒的冬天07-22这书太赞了,只选了部分感兴趣的内容看。最后的给青年数学家的建议也很好。书很厚,字体有点太小。
