Mathematical Science

Max Tegmark leads us on an astonishing journey through past, present and future, and through the physics, astronomy, and mathematics that are the foundation of his work, most particularly his hypothesis that our physical reality is a mathematical structure and his theory of the ultimate multiverse. In a dazzling combination of both popular and groundbreaking science, he not only helps us grasp his often mind-boggling theories, but he also shares with us some of the often surprising triumphs and disappointments that have shaped his life as a scientist.

Mathematical Mindsets provides practical strategies and activities to help teachers and parents show all children, even those who are convinced that they are bad at math, that they can enjoy and succeed in math. Jo Boaler - Stanford researcher, professor of math education, and expert on math learning - has studied why students don't like math and often fail in math classes. She's followed thousands of students through middle and high schools to study how they learn and to find the most effective ways to unleash the math potential in all students.

Nearly a hundred years after its publication, Kurt Gödel's famous proof that every mathematical system must contain propositions that are true - yet never provable - continues to unsettle mathematics, philosophy, and computer science. Yet unlike Einstein, with whom he formed a warm and abiding friendship, Gödel has long escaped all but the most casual scrutiny of his life.

Michael Schneider leads us on a spectacular journey along the numbers one through 10 to explore the mathematical principles made visible in flowers, shells, crystals, plants, and the human body, expressed in the symbolic language of folk sayings and fairy tales, myth and religion, art and architecture. This is a new view of mathematics, not the one we learned at school but a comprehensive guide to the patterns that recur through the universe and underlie human affairs.

For thousands of years mathematicians solved progressively more difficult algebraic equations, until they encountered the quintic equation, which resisted solution for three centuries. Working independently, two prodigies ultimately proved that the quintic cannot be solved by a simple formula. The first popular account of the mathematics of symmetry and order, The Equation That Couldn't Be Solved is told not through abstract formulas but in a beautifully written and dramatic account of the lives and work of some of the greatest and most intriguing mathematicians in history.

A fun, nontechnical, and wonderfully engaging guide to that most powerful and mysterious of mathematical concepts: infinity. In this book, best-selling author and mathematician Haim Shapira presents an introduction to mathematical theories which deal with the most beautiful concept ever invented by humankind: infinity.

¿Qué son las matemáticas? ¿Para qué sirven? ¿Por qué es importante conocer su historia? Estas son algunas de las preguntas a las que da respuesta esta obra que nos narra de forma concisa la historia de esta ciencia desde la Prehistoria hasta nuestros días. Pero esta narración no es solamente una superposición de personajes históricos y de sus felices descubrimientos, sino que es una reivindicación de los componentes emocionales, incluso irracionales, que muchas veces han acompañado las actitudes apasionadas de estos célebres personajes, empeñados en buscar soluciones...

"¿Quién escucharía un audiolibro sobre matemáticas sin que le obliguen?". Porque al escuchar sobre ellas se corren varios riesgos.... Tal vez cambiemos nuestra idea sobre las matemáticas, con las que hemos vivido tan cómodamente todo este tiempo, y es posible que terminen por gustarnos. Este audiolibro te mostrará que las matemáticas no son tan odiosas como aparentan; en ellas interviene la creatividad, la intuición, el cálculo, la imaginación, la técnica. Son una oportunidad de disfrutar de la realidad de una forma distinta.
