书籍简介
音乐中充满了数学元素。巴赫的作品经常被说成拥有类似数学的逻辑，阿诺德·勋伯格、伊安尼斯·塞纳基斯和卡尔海因茨·斯托克豪森都明确地根据数学原理来写音乐。然而，Eli Maor认为，是音乐对数学产生了更大的影响，而不是反过来。从毕达哥拉斯开始，到勋伯格，再到现在的当代弦理论，《音乐是怎样算成的》讲述了在音乐、数学和物理科学之间的古老关系中发挥作用的作曲家、科学家、发明家和怪人的迷人的故事。本书将引人入胜的历史事件故事与毛尔作为数学家和古典音乐爱好者的个人思考交织在一起，将使所有热爱数学和音乐的人感到高兴。
Music is filled with mathematical elements. The works of Bach are often said to possess a math-like logic, and Arnold Schoenberg, Iannis Xenakis, and Karlheinz Stockhausen wrote music explicitly based on mathematical principles. Yet Eli Maor argues that it is music that has had the greater influence on mathematics, not the other way around. Starting with Pythagoras, proceeding through Schoenberg, and bringing the story up to the present with contemporary string theory, Music by the Numbers tells a fascinating story of composers, scientists, inventors, and eccentrics who have played a role in the age-old relationship between music, mathematics, and the physical sciences. Weaving compelling stories of historical episodes with Maor’s personal reflections as a mathematician and lover of classical music, thi s b ook will delight anyone who loves math and music.
