摘自 Wolfram 本人blog
I spend most of my time trying to build the future with science and technology. But for many years now I’ve also had two other great interests: people and history. And today I’m excited to be publishing my first book that builds on these interests. It’s called Idea Makers, and its subtitle is Personal Perspectives on the Lives & Ideas of Some Notable People. It’s based on essays I’ve written over the past decade about a range of people—from ones I’ve personally known (like Richard Feynman and Steve Jobs) to ones who died long before I was born (like Ada Lovelace and Gottfried Leibniz).
The book is about lives and ideas, and how they mix together. At its core it’s a book of stories about people, and what those people managed to create. It’s the first book I’ve written that’s fundamentally non-technical—and I’m hoping all sorts of readers without deep technical interests will be able to enjoy it.
It's fascinating narrative of each person. And, the most inspiring comments are chapter *Richard Feynman* and chapter *Srinivasa Ramanujan*.
评分对每个人的评价实在是没有新意,除非你已经知道书中所提到的人。看了几章实在觉得索味!
评分他喜欢在每个篇末都对这个人物来一个大体的猜想。另外,硬广不少。

评分Steven Wolfram给Mathematica、NKS有个人或精神关系的前人写的学术传记和个人唁文,或者说着迷于"简单规则,复杂现象"的松散的一群人的精神族谱。每篇都像是NKS的软文,但这是他一辈子的主线,是诚恳的。
