Once Upon A Number 电子书读后感

评分☆☆☆☆☆

确实翻译的差点没办法，只能再翻回英文来读。有点费劲的看来接近1个月，不过收获还是不少。文学遇上科学，总会是幽默的。所以说，理科背景改攻文史哲，没错。

评分☆☆☆☆☆

书的内容很好，讲了很多数学上违背直观但真实存在的事实。但是……能不能别翻译的这么糟糕？读的直恶心！不带你们这么害人的！

Once Upon A Number 2024 pdf epub mobi 电子书图书描述

Named one of the Best Nonfiction Books of 1998 by the Los Angeles Times, Once Upon a Number presents a surprising and humorous look at the similarities between narratives and numbers. "Both delightful and wise, this little book cries out to be kept close at hand, to be looked into from time to time, to be treasured as an old friend." -Los Angeles Times A "charming narrative.…Almost every piece is fascinating." -Salon "[Once Upon a Number] deserves rereading." -Booklist Once Upon a Number shows that stories and numbers aren't as different as you might imagine. In fact, they have surprising and fascinating connections. Beside lucid accounts of cutting-edge information theory we get hilarious anecdotes and jokes; instructions for running a truly impressive pyramid scam; a freewheeling conversation between Groucho Marx and Bertrand Russell; explanations of why the mundane facts of the O.J. Simpson case are overwhelmingly incriminating; how the Unabomber's thinking shows signs of mathematical training; why we're much more likely to feel aggrieved than aggrieving; and dozens of other treats. America's most engaging mathematician has done it again.

“Can we successfully straddle the chasm between people who see the world exclusively in terms of good guys and bad guys and those who see it in terms of chance and number, between “literary”and “scientific” culture, and, at two extremes, between conspiracy theorists and “nowhere men”?
