Millions have seen the movie and thousands have read the book but few have fully appreciated the mathematics developed by John Nash's beautiful mind. Today Nash's beautiful math has become a universal language for research in the social sciences and has infiltrated the realms of evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and even quantum physics. John Nash won the 1994 Nobel Prize in economics for pioneering research published in the 1950s on a new branch of mathematics known as game theory. At the time of Nash's early work, game theory was briefly popular among some mathematicians and Cold War analysts. But it remained obscure until the 1970s when evolutionary biologists began applying it to their work. In the 1980s economists began to embrace game theory. Since then it has found an ever expanding repertoire of applications among a wide range of scientific disciplines. Today neuroscientists peer into game players' brains, anthropologists play games with people from primitive cultures, biologists use games to explain the evolution of human language, and mathematicians exploit games to better understand social networks. A common thread connecting much of this research is its relevance to the ancient quest for a science of human social behavior, or "a Code of Nature," in the spirit of the fictional science of psychohistory described in the famous Foundation novels by the late Isaac Asimov. In A Beautiful Math, acclaimed science writer Tom Siegfried describes how game theory links the life sciences, social sciences, and physical sciences in a way that may bring Asimov's dream closer to reality.

最近幾天一直在讀一部數學方麵的書。a beautiful math。 主要講的是nash 的 game theory及其影響。 Game Theory其實國內都多多少少聽說過, 但通常的介紹也就到囚徒睏境而己。 這部書的的寫法更像是一部科技和文化史。 它上到亞當斯密,達爾文,牛頓,maxwell,高斯,下到...
評分作者給每個章節都起瞭個宏大的名字,使你時刻做著思維被顛覆的準備,但真正讀過之後會發現作者所說的實際上都是你知道的,而且根本也沒切中要害。整本書給人一種“入寶山空手而歸”的感覺,不過空手而歸的首先是作者,自然然後是讀者。
評分還沒忍住翻瞭這本《納什均衡與博弈論》 “用博弈論涵蓋所有的文化多樣性在乍看之下前景黯淡,尤其在最基本的博弈論中,社會科學的元素似乎消失瞭。然而人並不是傳統博弈理論中隻顧私利的理性個體,他們在博弈中的選擇帶有感情色彩。社會也發展齣截然不同的集體行為文化模式,沒...
評分這本書沒有什麼讓人特彆耳目一新的論點,也不準備在前瞻性方麵作齣什麼貢獻,但是作為一本科普書,無疑是優秀的。我學習過博弈論導論,粗粗涉獵過計算機科學,受過經濟學科班訓練,也對物理有一些興趣,這本書找到這些領域的內在聯係,意圖用博弈論來聯閤這些科學。我不是大牛...

評分同樣寫Nash,Nasar和Siegfried能拿來賣錢,我雞隻能拿來賣逼,還賣不上個好價錢——難道title要冠以“人人網著名意領、豆瓣首頁紅人、中國華僑齣版社簽約作傢”之名?
