具體描述
In "Love and Math," Berkeley professor Edward Frenkel shows that mathematics, far from occupying a specialist niche, goes to the heart of all matter and unites us across cultures, continents, and centuries. In this heartfelt and passionate book, Frenkel reveals a side of mathematics we've never seen, suffused with all the beauty and wonder of a work of art, appealing not only to the cerebral, but to the human and the spiritual.
"Love and Math" tells two intertwined stories: of amazing mathematics and of the journey of one young man learning and living it. Growing up in Russia, Frenkel was denied entrance to university to study mathematics because of discriminatory policies. Yet with the help of his mentors he circumvented the system to become one of the twenty-first century's leading mathematicians. He now works on one of the biggest ideas to come out of mathematics in the last 50 years: the Langlands Program, considered by many to be a Grand Unified Theory of Mathematics.
While most people are not blocked from studying mathematics, many see it as being impenetrable, or worse, irrelevant to their lives. At its core, "Love and Math" is a story about gaining entry to the previously inaccessible, which can enrich our lives and empower us to understand better the world and our place in it. It is an invitation to discover the wonders of the hidden universe of mathematics.

##A quick and fun read
評分##如果不能理解langlands綱領的重要性，在純數學或是理論物理這種行當，恐怕會被前沿的領軍人物越甩越遠。
評分##A good motivation for studying math.
評分##Langlands The Grand Unified Theory：基本粒子分類是SU群，辮子群和DNA，歐拉函數和betti數的關係解釋瞭數論和辮子群，從LANGLANDS角度思考共形場論問題，纔能理解場論的本質。黎曼麯麵 數論 有限域上的麯綫三者等價
評分##一半傳記一半科普。更喜歡傳記的部分，沒想到蘇聯曾經還對猶太人有那麼多限製。主題是Langlands program，在科普中也是獨一無二的（這東西實在是超級重要）。總體還是挺好的PS：作者怎麼說也是這個方嚮的領軍人物之一，結果主頁的個人照片搞得像明星似的= =PPS：數學和物理的科普的書一直看得不多，因為總覺得那種用生活語言描述齣來的東西，和自己真正嚴格去學是完全是兩個感覺。
評分##Frenkel傳奇的半生。這裏麵的科普，行外人是看不懂的吧
評分##講laglands綱領的科普書，穿插著講作者本人的追夢故事。估計有一大半熱愛數學的人都是在陰差陽錯一瞬間從對數學無感到喜歡的吧，而這種熱愛怕是一旦燃起就無法熄滅。數學實在太美好瞭——數學知識如此深奧，精緻，美好，但可供任何人隨時取用，並非那些“受過良好教育的少數人”的專利。
評分##看這本書的時機很對，上學期剛上完抽代，對書中所介紹的內容也大都熟知/有大概認識。不過對我來說最值得看的部分倒不是關於數學本身的部分，而是作者神奇的經歷⋯
評分##作者毫不猶豫的將自己的研究原汁原味的展現, 因為數學之愛能衝破所有的障礙
