英国著名神学家和小说家,以科幻小说《平面国》闻名于世...
Over a hundred years ago, Edwin Abbott Abbott wrote a mathematical adventure set in a two-dimensional plane world, populated by a hierarchical society of regular geometrical figures-who think and speak and have all too human emotions. Since then Flatland has fascinated generations of readers, becoming a perennial science-fiction favorite. By imagining the contact of beings from different dimensions, the author fully exploited the power of the analogy between the limitations of humans and those of his two-dimensional characters.</p>
A first-rate fictional guide to the concept of multiple dimensions of space, the book will also appeal to those who are interested in computer graphics. This field, which literally makes higher dimensions seeable, has aroused a new interest in visualization. We can now manipulate objects in four dimensions and observe their three-dimensional slices tumbling on the computer screen. But how do we interpret these images? In his introduction, Thomas Banchoff points out that there is no better way to begin exploring the problem of understanding higher-dimensional slicing phenomena than reading this classic novel of the Victorian era.</p>
有个低等的等腰三角形,脑袋还不到四度,不仅偶尔涂成某个商人的颜色,然后抢劫他的商店,而且把自己涂成,或者让人把他涂成(因为这个故事说法不一)十二边形的12种颜色。他来到一个集市上,佯装他人的声音勾引了一位少女。这位少女是位出身于高贵的多边形家庭的孤儿,在这之...
评分最近我读了一本非常有趣的科幻小说,是埃德温·艾勃特的《平面国》,正如书名所提示的那样,它主要描绘了一个处在二维空间中的国家,在那里一切都是平面的,甚至连人也是一样。也许我们这些处在三维空间的人会觉得他们可怜,但他们本身却是自有一番乐趣。 平面国的居民...
评分很有滋味的小说,描述细致笔触幽默。 作者对二维世界不仅有出自逻辑与数学角度的构想(比如平面国的人如何认知这个世界,如何判断男女以及不同个体,如何通过明暗变化与线条长短的配合来判断来者边数等),更延伸到了意识形态、思想文化以及宗教信仰等层面(比如边数决定等级,...
评分 评分恐怕这辈子都想象不出来四维空间的物体是什么样
评分还是刚来英国时数学老师推荐的~ 好久远了~
评分有趣得很!
评分看看
评分讽刺的部分具体对象是什么不是太清楚
