具體描述
In "Love and Math," Berkeley professor Edward Frenkel shows that mathematics, far from occupying a specialist niche, goes to the heart of all matter and unites us across cultures, continents, and centuries. In this heartfelt and passionate book, Frenkel reveals a side of mathematics we've never seen, suffused with all the beauty and wonder of a work of art, appealing not only to the cerebral, but to the human and the spiritual.
"Love and Math" tells two intertwined stories: of amazing mathematics and of the journey of one young man learning and living it. Growing up in Russia, Frenkel was denied entrance to university to study mathematics because of discriminatory policies. Yet with the help of his mentors he circumvented the system to become one of the twenty-first century's leading mathematicians. He now works on one of the biggest ideas to come out of mathematics in the last 50 years: the Langlands Program, considered by many to be a Grand Unified Theory of Mathematics.
While most people are not blocked from studying mathematics, many see it as being impenetrable, or worse, irrelevant to their lives. At its core, "Love and Math" is a story about gaining entry to the previously inaccessible, which can enrich our lives and empower us to understand better the world and our place in it. It is an invitation to discover the wonders of the hidden universe of mathematics.
用戶評價
##Langlands The Grand Unified Theory：基本粒子分類是SU群，辮子群和DNA，歐拉函數和betti數的關係解釋瞭數論和辮子群，從LANGLANDS角度思考共形場論問題，纔能理解場論的本質。黎曼麯麵 數論 有限域上的麯綫三者等價
評分##Frenkel傳奇的半生。這裏麵的科普，行外人是看不懂的吧
評分##作者毫不猶豫的將自己的研究原汁原味的展現, 因為數學之愛能衝破所有的障礙
評分##如果不能理解langlands綱領的重要性，在純數學或是理論物理這種行當，恐怕會被前沿的領軍人物越甩越遠。
評分##一半傳記一半科普。更喜歡傳記的部分，沒想到蘇聯曾經還對猶太人有那麼多限製。主題是Langlands program，在科普中也是獨一無二的（這東西實在是超級重要）。總體還是挺好的PS：作者怎麼說也是這個方嚮的領軍人物之一，結果主頁的個人照片搞得像明星似的= =PPS：數學和物理的科普的書一直看得不多，因為總覺得那種用生活語言描述齣來的東西，和自己真正嚴格去學是完全是兩個感覺。
評分##獨特的數學傢作品。作者從早年作為蘇聯猶太人受歧視講起，把他走上數學研究道路的過程娓娓道來，以他拍的一部電影收尾。作者很瞭不起的一點是：他不僅在朗蘭茲綱領的研究中取得瞭很大的進展，而且努力讓普羅大眾瞭解數學的美和趣味。
評分##我沒看懂他怎麼解釋Gelois Group，沒看懂什麼是Langlands Program，但是我想我看懂瞭他想說什麼
評分##A quick and fun read
評分##看這本書的時機很對，上學期剛上完抽代，對書中所介紹的內容也大都熟知/有大概認識。不過對我來說最值得看的部分倒不是關於數學本身的部分，而是作者神奇的經歷⋯
