The object of his affection, Molly Bloxam, was 17 and setting off to study science at University College London. Her father decreed that the two could correspond only if Barnes taught Molly mathematics in his letters. Mathematics with Love presents, for the first time, the result of this curious diktat: a series of witty, tender and totally accessible introductions to calculus, trigonometry and electrostatic induction that remarkably, wooed and won the girl. Deftly narrated by Barnes and Molly‘s daughter Mary, Mathematics with Love is an evocative tale of a twenties courtship, a surprising insight into the early life of an engineering genius - and a great way to learn a little mathematics. | | 出版日期 | Book 2005 | | 關(guān)鍵詞 | England; material; mathematics; engineering; England; history; history of science; Holocaust; material; mathe | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-230-55222-7 | | isbn_ebook | 978-0-230-55222-7Series ISSN 2947-7387 Series E-ISSN 2947-7395 | | issn_series | 2947-7387 | | copyright | Palgrave Macmillan, a division of Nature America Inc. 2005 |
