Geometry of Grief

Reflections on Mathematics, Loss, and Life

af Michael Frame ...

" With poignancy and audacity, Frame builds an unexpected bridge between mathematical beauty and human sorrow, illuminating both." —Francis Su, author of Mathematics for Human FlourishingWe all know the euphoria of intellectual epiphany—the thrill of sudden understanding. But coupled with that excitement is a sense of loss: a moment of epiphany can never be repeated. In Geometry of Grief *, ... Læs mere

La geometria del dolore

Riflessioni sulla matematica e sulla vita

af Michael Frame ...

Oversat af Daniele Gewurz ...

Cosa lega l'irreversibilità della morte all'irreversibilità di una scoperta illuminante? Come può la geometria frattale aiutarci a superare il dolore di una perdita? Un oggetto viene definito frattale quando ripete se stesso su scale diverse, in un'iterazione che produce forme complesse e affascinanti. Allo stesso modo, Michael Frame propone una visione del tutto nuova dell'esperienza del dolore, ... Læs mere

悲傷幾何學：思索數學、失去與人生

Geometry of Grief: Reflections on Mathematics, Loss, and Life

af 麥可．法瑞姆, Michael Frame, 畢馨云 ...

【推薦人】洪萬生國立臺灣師範大學數學系退休教授蘇益賢臨床心理師蘇絢慧諮商心理師／璞成健康心理學堂創辦人以幾何學思考人生有種美好且形而上的領悟我們有時會感受到，對某事突然理解或頓悟而產生的瞬間快感，但伴隨著興奮之後的是一種失落感，因為領悟的剎那永遠不會重複，也就是幾何學談的「不可逆轉」，我們對此情境變化的反應就是悲傷。但對《悲傷幾何學》作者而言，悲傷可能是人們生命中充滿可能性的時刻，讓我們能夠了解，失去親人或生命中各種事物，與失去頓悟的快感之間有相似之處。透過幾何學的放大對稱性，我們依然會看到原始形狀。同樣的，鑲嵌在大損失中的是較小的損失。這種領悟有助於減輕人生痛苦，重新定向我們的思維。作者認為，悲傷有兩種意思。首先，悲傷是對永久失去的反應：它是不可逆轉、帶有情感重量，且是超凡的；此外，悲傷是自我相似：譬如，喪母之痛包含許多「比較輕微」的悲傷，因為再也不能促膝長談，或一起用餐、散步 ...

The Battle over Mendel and the Future of Biology

A root-and-branch rethinking of how history has shaped the science of genetics.In 1900, almost no one had heard of Gregor Mendel. Ten years later, he was famous as the father of a new science of heredity—genetics. Even today, Mendelian ideas serve as a standard point of entry for learning about genes.
