The Equations: Icons of Knowledge

Sander Bais, "The Equations: Icons of Knowledge"
Publisher: Harvard University Press | 2005-11-15 | 98 Pages | ISBN: 0674019679 | PDF | 1.4 MB

The mysteries of the physical world speak to us through equations--compact statements about the way nature works, expressed in nature's language, mathematics. In this book by the renowned Dutch physicist Sander Bais, the equations that govern our world unfold in all their formal grace--and their deeper meaning as core symbols of our civilization.

Trying to explain science without equations is like trying to explain art without illustrations. Consequently Bais has produced a book that, unlike any other aimed at nonscientists, delves into the details--historical, biographical, practical, philosophical, and mathematical--of seventeen equations that form the very basis of what we know of the universe today. A mathematical objet d'art in its own right, the book conveys the transcendent excitement and beauty of these icons of knowledge as they reveal and embody the fundamental truths of physical reality.

These are the seventeen equations that represent radical turning points in our understanding--from mechanics to electrodynamics, hydrodynamics to relativity, quantum mechanics to string theory--their meanings revealed through the careful and critical observation of patterns and motions in nature. Mercifully short on dry theoretical elaborations, the book presents these equations as they are--with the information about their variables, history, and applications that allows us to chart their critical function, and their crucial place, in the complex web of modern science.

Reading The Equations, we can hear nature speaking to us in its native language

Five Equations that Changed the World: The Power and Poetry of Mathematics

Michael Guillen
Five Equations that Changed the World: The Power and Poetry of Mathematics
Hyperion | 1996 | ISBN: 0786881879 | 276 pages | PDF | 101 Mb

Harvard mathematician-physicist Guillen, who explored the human side of mathematics in Bridges to Infinity, now profiles five pioneers whose mathematical equations had far-reaching impacts. This seamless blend of dramatic biography and mathematical documentary links the personal with the scientific. For example, Swiss physicist Daniel Bernoulli, whose hydrodynamic equation led ultimately to the airplane, quit mathematics in disgust with his seemingly pointless career after his jealous father plagiarized his fluid-flow equations. Isaac Newton, whose understanding of gravitational attraction between objects made possible the landing of a human on the moon, was impelled to high achievement partly by an obsessive desire for vindication and revenge against a classroom bully. German physicist Rudolf Clausius, whose wife, Adelheid, died giving birth in 1875, saw life as an ultimately futile contest for survival; his law of entropy, or irreversible energy dissipation, explains a universe in which everything?cells, organisms, galaxies?eventually ages and dies. Also here are British chemist Michael Faraday, father of the electrical age, and Albert Einstein, who rued his decision to encourage Roosevelt to build atomic bombs. A wholly accessible, beautifully written exploration of the potent mathematical imagination.

Mathematics and Physics for Programmers

Danny Kodicek, John P. Flynt, "Mathematics and Physics for Programmers, 2nd Edition"
Publisher: C..rse T.chn.lo.y P.R | ISBN: 1435457331 | September 28, 2011 | PDF | 688 pages | 8 MB

The casual game market continues to expand, and with the use of Flash growing and the increased popularity of the iPhone and other mobile gaming devices, developers have an exciting new route to market. But many of these budding game programmers find that they're missing the core math and physics skills they need to develop even simple games. MATHEMATICS AND PHYSICS FOR PROGRAMMERS, SECOND EDITION teaches beginning game programmers they skills they need to develop causal games. Beginning with the basic aspects of mathematics and physics that are relevant to games, and moving on to more complex topics, the book combines theory and practice and the reader develops a number of games throughout the course of the book. With the concepts and techniques presented in the book, readers should be able to program a number of standard casual game types, including Mario-style platformers, driving simulations, puzzle games, and a simple first-person shooter. They will also gain a basic understanding of 2D and 3D geometry.

Basic Mathematics for Economists

Mike Rosser, "Basic Mathematics for Economists"
Routledge; 2 edition | English | 2003-05-18 | ISBN: 0415267846 | 536 pages | PDF | 3 mb

Economics students will welcome the new edition of this excellent textbook. Mathematics is an integral part of economics and understanding basic concepts is vital. Many students come into economics courses without having studied mathematics for a number of years. This clearly written book will help to develop quantitative skills in even the least numerate student up to the required level for a general Economics or Business Studies course. This second edition features new sections on subjects such as:
- matrix algebra
- part year investment
- financial mathematics

Improved pedagogical features, such as learning objectives and end of chapter questions, along with the use of Microsoft Excel and the overall example-led style of the book means that it will be a sure fire hit with both students and their lecturers.

Publisher: S�ringer | 1981-09-03 | ISBN: 0412165708, 0412165600 | DJVU | 189 pages | 2.85 MB

This book should be of interest to senior undergraduate and postgraduate students of applied statistics.

The analyses of the examples are sufficiently detailed to provide good illustrations of both general principles and important specific techniques of analysis, yet are presented insuch a way that tge informed reader will want to try his own hand at extending the analysis of the data. This book should be read by anyone interested in statistical methods.

-J.F. Lawless, International Statistical Institute

I recommend anyone who teaches applied statistics at an advanced level to purchase this book.
