Finding Moonshine : A Mathematician's Journey Through Symmetry
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
Marcus du Sautoy has been named by the Independent on Sunday as one of the UK's leading scientists, has written extensively for the Guardian, The Times and the Daily Telegraph and has appeared on Radio 4 on numerous occasions. In 2008 he was appointed to Oxford University’s prestigious professorship as the Simonyi Chair for the Public Understanding of Science, a post previously held by Richard Dawkins.
From fundamental particles to our ideas of art, from insect life to architecture and from the Alhambra to football, in ‘Finding Moonshine’, Marcus du Sautoy explores what is perhaps the most significant concept in mathematics: symmetry.
Following the eccentric individuals who have quested after symmetry through the ages, we are plunged into a very particular world: one of bearded professors and young geniuses killed in duels, of 196,883 dimensional shapes (known as the Monster) and of exhilarations unique to mathematical investigation. Grappling with some of the most complex ideas the human mind can encompass, ‘Finding Moonshine’ brilliantly combines mathematical insight with personal stories – and allows us to see the world just a little more as mathematicians do.
