Mathematics is a fundamental human activity that can be practised and understood in a multitude of ways; indeed, mathematical ideas themselves are far from being fixed, but are adapted and changed by their passage across periods and cultures. In this Very Short Introduction, Jacqueline Stedall explores the rich historical and cultural diversity of mathematical endeavour from the distant past to the present day. Arranged thematically, to exemplify the varied contexts in which people have learned, used, and handed on mathematics, she also includes illustrative case studies drawn from a range of times and places, including early imperial China, the medieval Islamic world, and nineteenth-century Britain.
Very attentive. // Aware: The crystal clearness of modern episteme involves reception from Euclid's systematic deductive style, excluding the "illogical" calculation that charges the Medieval. But since Non-Euclidean of the 19th-c, raised calculation again with axiomatic "guess". The critical point lies in shifts between geometry and algebra.
评分一如Oxford既往的好 可能我不是数学出身 所以无法太好的理解这个简短 所以读起来不如读thermodynamic那本那么爽
评分视角很独特
评分数学学多了太容易让人产生精英主义的崇拜了。这本书希望我们的目光从为数学知识开疆拓土的先知身上移开,关注使用数学的凡人身上。内容按主题编排,就没有期末考试老师划重点一样浮光掠影的感觉,甚至有一点虚假的充实感觉,可见还是花了心思在体例上。
