Download or read book Borges and Mathematics written by Guillermo Martínez and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Borges and Mathematics is a short book of essays that explores the scientific thinking of the Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986). Around half of the book consists of two "lectures" focused on mathematics. The rest of the book reflects on the relationship between literature, artistic creation, physics, and mathematics more generally. Written in a way that will be accessible even to those "who can only count to ten," the book presents a bravura demonstration of the intricate links between the worlds of sciences and arts, and it is a thought-provoking call to dialog for readers from both traditions. The author, Guillermo Mart nez, is both a recognized writer, whose murder mystery The Oxford Murders has been translated into thirty-five languages, and a PhD in mathematics. Contents: Borges and Mathematics: First Lecture; Borges and Mathematics: Second Lecture; The Golem and Artificial Intelligence; The Short Story as Logical System; A Margin Too Narrow; Euclid, or the Aesthetics of Mathematical Reasoning; Solutions and Disillusions; The Pythagorean Twins; The Music of Chance (Interview with Gregory Chaikin); Literature and Rationality; Who's Afraid of the Big Bad One?; A Small, Small God; God's Sinkhole. This book was originally published in Spanish as Borges y la matem tica (2003). It has been translated with generous support from the Latino Cultural Center at Purdue University.

This book was released on 2011-05-10 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «Querido Pierre, a quien nunca volveré a ver aquí, quiero hablarte en el silencio de este laboratorio, donde no pensaba que tendría que vivir sin ti. Y, antes, quiero recordar los últimos días que vivimos juntos». Con estas palabras abre Marie Curie la entrada de su diario (30 de abril de 1906) en la que recoge el terrible pesar por la muerte accidental de su marido Pierre, con quien había compartido pasión científica y descubrimientos cruciales acerca de la radiactividad, por los que fueron galardonados con el Premio Nobel de Física. El desgarro por la pérdida del ser más querido, pero también la evocación de los momentos de plenitud personal y científica, los rigores de la competencia académica o la forma de encajar esos elementos en su condición de mujer son algunas de las facetas que reflejan los extraordinarios escritos reunidos por vez primera en el presente volumen, entre los que descuellan la biografía que escribió sobre su marido y una extensa semblanza autobiográfica, así como las notas de laboratorio redactadas en los años del descubrimiento del radio y el polonio, además de secciones de su diario personal. Estas piezas componen una suerte de «Curie confidencial» que nos permite conocer de primera mano, desde la inmediatez y la intimidad personales, algunos episodios decisivos de la ciencia del siglo xx, y adentrarnos en los anhelos, conquistas y sentimientos de una mujer pionera en casi todos los frentes. Una vida y una vocación a través de su propia voz. (Selección y prólogo de Xavier Roqué.) Autor: Marie Curie (1867-1934), licenciada en Física y Matemáticas, se doctoró en 1903 con un estudio sobre las sustancias radiactivas que la hizo merecedora, junto a su marido Pierre Curie y Henri Becquerel, del Premio Nobel de Física de ese mismo año. Catedrática de Física en La Sorbona en 1906, recibió un segundo Premio Nobel en 1911, en esta ocasión de Química, por el descubrimiento del radio y el polonio. Junto a su eminente papel científico, su vida tuvo un importante sesgo público y se convirtió en uno de los rostros más célebres de la ciencia de principios del siglo xx. Colaboró activamente en mejorar la atención médica a los heridos en los campos de combate de la Primera Guerra Mundial, fundó en París y en su Varsovia natal instituciones científicas para el estudio de la radiactividad y recibió, sobre todo en sus últimos años, homenajes y reconocimientos de todo orden, incluido un viaje a los Estados Unidos en 1921. Sus restos reposan en el Panteón de París, con lo que se ha convertido en la primera mujer en recibir semejante honor. La introducción ha sido redactada por Xavier Roqué, profesor de Historia de la Ciencia de la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona y especialista en la historia de la física del siglo xx, a la que ha dedicado trabajos y ediciones de textos sobre radiactividad, relatividad y mecánica cuántica.

Download or read book The Mathematics of Life written by Ian Stewart and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2011-06-07 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biologists have long dismissed mathematics as being unable to meaningfully contribute to our understanding of living beings. Within the past ten years, however, mathematicians have proven that they hold the key to unlocking the mysteries of our world -- and ourselves. In The Mathematics of Life, Ian Stewart provides a fascinating overview of the vital but little-recognized role mathematics has played in pulling back the curtain on the hidden complexities of the natural world -- and how its contribution will be even more vital in the years ahead. In his characteristically clear and entertaining fashion, Stewart explains how mathematicians and biologists have come to work together on some of the most difficult scientific problems that the human race has ever tackled, including the nature and origin of life itself.
