Description
Joy of Thinking: The Beauty and Power of Classical Mathematical Ideas, the training course Joy of Thinking: The Beauty and Power of Classical Mathematical Ideas is published by The Great Courses Academy. Explore mathematics as an artistic and creative realm that contains some of the greatest ideas in human history. This lesson explores the fourth dimension, probability, chaos, fractals, and other imaginative topics. If Bill Gates saw a $100 bill on the sidewalk, would he pick it up? The world of mathematics contains some of mankind’s greatest ideas—ideas that rival the works of Shakespeare, Plato, and Michelangelo. These mathematical ideas can add texture, beauty and wonder to your life.
Most importantly, you don’t need to be a mathematician to access this world. The Pleasure of Contemplation is a course about fun, aesthetics and mystery. About big mathematical ideas that emerge from puzzles, observations of everyday life, and habits of curiosity and effective thinking. It is as much about learning to think abstractly as we traditionally think about mathematics. You explore the fourth dimension, events, phases, number charms, and geometry, and bring these weighty concepts back down to earth to see how they apply to your life. Rather than focusing on adding numbers or creating equations (there are actually fewer numbers than you might expect), this lesson will enable you to develop insightful strategies for approaching, enjoying, and understanding the world around you. discover and understand
What you will learn
- One way to modify our worldview is to become more accurate in describing what we see. Each of the classical theories of numbers, geometry, topology, sections and probability provide tools.
- Numbers accompany us throughout our lives and play an essential role in the field of mathematics. By counting and quantifying, we understand our world more delicately.
- For a mathematician, numbers have their own personality. This lecture examines the ways in which they have been used and understood throughout the ages and have fascinated mankind.
- We see how a hidden sequence of numbers actually underlies much of nature’s beauty, and explore the remarkable insights found in the pattern known as Fibonacci numbers.
