劍橋大學推薦書目【三】
Makers of Mathematics S. Hollingdale (Penguin, 1989)
There are not many books on the history of mathematics which are pitched at a suitable level. Hollingdale gives a biographical approach which is both readable and mathematical. You might also try E.T. Bell Men of Mathematics (Touchstone Books, Simon and Schuster, 1986). Historians of mathematics have a lot to say about this (very little of it complimentary) but it is full of good stories which have inspired generations of mathematicians.
Alan Turing, the Enigma A. Hodges (Vintage, 1992)
A great biography of Alan Turing, a pioneer of modern computing. The title has a double meaning: the man was an enigma, committing suicide in 1954 by eating a poisoned apple, and the German code that he was instrumental in cracking was generated by the Enigma machine. The book is largely nonmathematical, but there are no holds barred when it comes to describing his major achievement, now called a Turing machine, with which he demonstrated that a famous conjecture by Hilbert is false.
The Man Who Knew Infinity R. Kanigel (Abacus, 1992)
The life of Ramanujan, the self-taught mathematical prodigy from a village near Madras. He sent Hardy samples of his work from India, which included rediscoveries of theorems already well known in the West and other results which completely baffled Hardy. Some of his estimates for the number of ways a large integer can be expressed as the sum of integers are extraordinarily accurate, but seem to have been plucked out of thin air.
A Mathematician’s Apology G.H. Hardy (CUP, 1992)
Hardy was one of the best mathematicians of the first part of this century. Always an achiever (his New Year resolutions one year included proving the Riemann hypothesis, making 211 not out in the fourth test at the Oval, finding an argument for the non-existence of God which would convince the general public, and murdering Mussolini), he led the renaissance in mathematical analysis in England. Graham Greene knew of no writing (except perhaps Henry James’s Introductory Essays) which conveys so clearly and with such an absence of fuss the excitement of the creative artist. There is an introduction by C.P. Snow.
Littlewood’s Miscellany (edited by B. Bollobas) (CUP, 1986)
This collection, first published in 1953, contains some wonderful insights into the development and lifestyle of a great mathematician as well as numerous anecdotes, mathematical (Lion and Man is excellent) and not-so-mathematical. The latest edition contains several worthwhile additions, including a splendid lecture entitled ‘The Mathematician’s Art of Work’, (as well as various items of interest mainly to those who believe that Trinity Great Court is the centre of the Universe). Thoroughly recommended.
The man who loved only numbers Paul Hoffman (Fourth Estate, 1999)
An excellent biography of Paul Erd¨os, one of the most prolific mathematicians of all time. Erd¨os wrote over 1500 papers (about 10 times the normal number for a mathematician) and collaborated with 485 other mathematicians. He had no home; he just descended on colleagues with whom he wanted to work, bringing with him all his belongings in a suitcase. Apart from details of Erd¨os’s life, there is plenty of discussion of the kind of problems (mainly number theory) that he worked on.
Surely You’re Joking, Mr Feynman R.P. Feynman (Arrow Books, 1992)
Autobiographical anecdotes from one of the greatest theoretical physicists of the last century, which became an immediate best-seller. You learn about physics, about life and (most puzzling of all) about Feynman. Very amusing and entertaining.
Simon Singh Fermat’s Last Theorem (Fourth Estate)
You must read this story of Andrew Wiles’s proof of Fermat’s Last Theorem, including all sorts of mathematical ideas and anecdotes; there is no better introduction to the world of research mathematics. Singh’s later The Code Book (Fourth Estate) is not so interesting mathematically, but is still a very good read.
Marcus du Sautoy The Music of the Primes (Harper-Collins, 2003)
This is a wide-ranging historical survey of a large chunk of mathematics with the Riemann Hypothesis acting as a thread tying everything together. The Riemann Hypothesis is one of the big unsolved problems in mathematics – in fact, it is one of the Clay Institute million dollar problems – though unlike Fermat’s last theorem it is unlikely ever to be the subject of pub conversation. Du Sautoy’s book is bang up to date, and attractively written. Some of the maths is tough but the history and storytelling paint a convincing (and appealing) picture of the world of professional mathematics.
Marcus Du Sautoy Finding Moonshine: a mathematician’s journey through symmetry
(Fourth Estate, 2008)
This book has been exceptionally well reviewed (even better than Du Sautoy’s Music of the Primes listed above). The title is self explanatory.
The book start with a romp through the history and winds up with some very modern ideas. You even have the opportunity to discover a group for yourself and have it named after you.
J. McLeish Number (Bloomsbury, 1991)
The development of the theory of numbers, from Babylon to Babbage, written with humour and erudition. Hugely enjoyable.
