Humans are pattern-matching creatures, and astrology is the universe's grandest pattern-matching game. In this refreshing work of history and analysis, data scientist Alexander Boxer examines classical texts on astrology to expose its underlying scientific and mathematical framework.

In Calculating the Cosmos, Ian Stewart presents an exhilarating guide to the cosmos, from our solar system to the entire universe. He describes the architecture of space and time, dark matter and dark energy, how galaxies form, why stars implode, how everything began, and how it's all going to end. He considers parallel universes, the fine-tuning of the cosmos for life, what forms extraterrestrial life might take, and the likelihood of life on Earth being snuffed out by an asteroid.

Statistics is used in almost every field and industry imaginable. From healthcare to finance to marketing, statistics are used to make important decisions, identify patterns and trends, and predict future outcomes. Without a basic understanding of statistics, it's easy to be left behind and taken advantage of.

Join Rob Eastaway as he takes an entertaining look at how to figure without a calculator. Packed with amusing anecdotes, quizzes, and handy calculation tips for every situation, Maths on the Back of an Envelope is an invaluable introduction to the art of estimation and a welcome reminder that sometimes our own brain is the best tool we have to deal with numbers.

If you’ve spent a fair share of time in math class glancing at the clock, you’re not alone. Glancing at the clouds and wondering how well counting the flower petals on the windowsill can help you run out the clock is a pretty common phenomenon for people who aren’t into numbers. But those connections you make aren’t just in your head. You might just be closer than you think to understanding the universe. The Voice of Math takes a deep dive into understanding numbers through the lens of humanity.

The exploration of eternal shapes is an endeavor that transcends temporal boundaries, reaching into the depths of human history and cultural evolution. A study of these archetypal forms reveals their indispensable role in shaping the very fabric of existence, both tangible and metaphysical.

Происхождение видов - opus magnum Дарвина, в котором он подробно и доступно обосновал теорию эволюции видов и естественного отбора как главного двигателя эволюции. Сейчас, когда с теорией эволюции знаком каждый школьник, невозможно даже представить себе, какой эффект произвел сначала в Англии, а потом и в других странах этот гениальный научный труд. Книга Дарвина, наряду с "Математическими началами натуральной философии" Ньютона, "О богатстве народов" Адама Смита, "Критикой чистого разума" Канта входит в золотой фонд человеческой мысли.

Do you want to become mentally sharper and quicker? Do you want to be able to save time and calculate large numbers on the go while you're shopping or adding up a bill at a restaurant? Do you want other people to notice how you seem to not need a calculator, how you seem like such a genius? If yes, then this audiobook is for you. Mental math is the ability to solve math problems in your head, without the need to write or use a calculator. And it has all of the benefits implied above and much more.

Ведущий физик-теоретик Карло Ровелли обращается к фигуре древнегреческого философа Анаксимандра — автора первой научной концепции мироустройства, — чтобы проследить историю научной мысли. Автор тщательно реконструирует теории Анаксимандра на основе того, что нам известно, обращая особое внимание на их историко-философский контекст. В книге органично переплетаются описания первых концепций мироустройства и размышления видного ученого нашего времени о самой природе научного мышления.

Numeri, figure geometriche e relazioni matematiche sono dovunque attorno a noi, talvolta in forma evidente, più spesso annidati nei meccanismi di funzionamento dell'universo. Ma in che modo - e perché - queste creazioni astratte della mente umana riescono a descrivere il mondo concreto dei fenomeni naturali, da quelli più familiari a quelli che hanno luogo nelle profondità della materia e del cosmo? Un filosofo e uno scienziato esplorano la capillare presenza della matematica nella natura, raccontando alcune delle sue manifestazioni più curiose e affascinanti.

We all know that numbers go on forever, that you could spend your life counting and never reach the end of the line, so there can’t be such a thing as a "biggest number". Or can there? To find out, David Darling and Agnijo Banerjee embark on an epic quest, revealing the answers to questions like: are there more grains of sand on Earth or stars in the universe? Is there enough paper on Earth to write out the digits of a googolplex? And what is a googolplex? Then things get serious.

Un estimulante viaje que comienza con la aparición de los números primos—objeto de profundas y sorprendentes investigaciones matemáticas a lo largo de los siglos—y nos lleva hasta los límites del infinito, el número más grande de todos y el único que consigue que las matemáticas y la filosofía encuentren un lugar común.

Eso no estaba en mi libro de Matemáticas va más allá del consabido texto en el que se exponen de forma más o menos ordenada ciertos tópicos aritméticos, geométricos o algebraicos. Por el contrario, esta obra es un compendio que aborda el vasto universo de las matemáticas dando cabida a contenidos en apariencia dispares e inconexos, pero tremendamente sugestivos para el oyente.

En sus páginas, amenas y cargadas de revelaciones, se dan cita personajes, problemas, procedimientos, recreaciones y paradojas del más variado tenor: desde el curioso origen de los símbolos matemáticos más usuales...

Dare senso al mondo, alle esperienze quotidiane e, ancor più, agli eventi che ci sorprendono o dai quali può dipendere la nostra sopravvivenza. Quante volte una dimenticanza o un impercettibile ritardo nel compiere un'azione hanno conseguenze importanti o addirittura drammatiche? È ciò che i matematici chiamano caos, un concetto che ha un'origine assai remota nel pensiero umano, condizione della bellezza della natura per i filosofi presocratici, forza speculare all'armonia nel taoismo.

Math is famous for its equations: 1 + 1 = 2, a^2 + b^2 = c^2, or y = mx + b. Much of the time it can seem like that’s all mathematics is: following steps to show that what’s on one side of an equation is the same as what’s on the other. In Unequal, Eugenia Cheng shows that’s just part of the story, and the boring part to boot. It isn’t even just about numbers and symbols at all, but a world of shapes, symmetries, logical ideas, and more.

What is the best way to think about the world? How often do we consider how our own thinking might impact the way we approach our daily decisions? Could it help or hinder our relationships, our careers, or even our health? As acclaimed mathematician David Sumpter shows, thinking about thinking is something we rarely do, yet it is something science questions all the time. He has spent decades studying what we could all learn from the mindsets of scientists, and Four Ways of Thinking is the result.
