MATH AND THE MONA LISA: THE ART AND SCIENCE OF LEONARDO DA VINCI

Book ID/图书代码: 12310714B71369

English Summary/英文概要: Leonardo da Vinci was one of history’s true geniuses, equally brilliant as an artist, scientist, and mathematician. Readers of The Da Vinci Code were given a glimpse of the mysterious connections between math, science, and Leonardo’s art. Math and the Mona Lisa picks up where The Da Vinci Code left off, illuminating Leonardo’s life and work to uncover connections that, until now, have been known only to scholars.

Following Leonardo’s own unique model, Atalay searches for the internal dynamics of art and science, revealing to us the deep unity of the two cultures. He provides a broad overview of the development of science from the dawn of civilization to today’s quantum mechanics. From this base of information, Atalay offers a fascinating view into Leonardo’s restless intellect and modus operandi, allowing us to see the source of his ideas and to appreciate his art from a new perspective. William D. Phillips, who won the Nobel Prize in physics in 1997, writes of the author, "Atalay is indeed a modern renaissance man, and he invites us to tap the power of synthesis that is Leonardo’s model."

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 列奥纳•多达芬奇是历史上真正的天才之一,他在艺术,科学和数学上同样的杰出。达芬奇密码的解读者们发现其在数学科学艺术领域中迷雾重重。《数学与蒙娜丽莎》找到了达芬奇密码遗漏的地方,它照亮了列奥纳多探索未知生活与工作的道路。知道现在,这一点才被学者们所知。

根据列奥纳多自己独一无二的模型,阿特列找到了其艺术与科学内在的联系,向我们揭示了两种文化更深层次的结合。从文化的开端到今天的量子论力学,就这些基本信息,阿特列依据列奥纳多超群的智力和运作的程序,提出了一个惊人的意见,让我们看到他思想的来源以及领会到他新观点的艺术

威廉•D•菲利普斯,一个曾经于1997年获得了诺贝尔物理学奖的人对作者这么写到‘“阿特列是一位现代真正的文艺复新人士,他带领我们走向列奥纳多模型综合体力量的巅峰”(LNL)

Awards/获奖情况:阿特列独特前沿的想法让我们进一步了解到到达芬奇天才想法的洞察力,新颖性,合理性,以至于它马上成为了列奥纳多家族奉行的教规。我怀着敬畏之情读了这具有里程碑意义的书—舍温•努兰,是《列奥纳•多达芬奇》的作者及1994年凭借《如何死》获得国家图书奖的作者。“在科学和艺术方面,大师级别的检测有相似之所处也有不同之处,它们被两个领域内共同的天才列奥纳•多达芬奇呈现勒出来”。

"The broad sweep of Professor Atalay’s brilliant mind brings us an approach to understanding the Vincian genius that is so insightful, so original, and so well-reasoned that it immediately becomes an essential volume in the canon of Leonardiana. I read this monumental achievement in awe of the author’s perceptions."--Sherwin Nuland, author of "Leonardo da Vinci" and winner of the 1994 National Book Award for "How We Die." "A masterful examination of the differences and similarities in the sciences and the arts, as embodied by that genius of both fields: Leonardo da Vinci. Professor Bulent Atalay has penetrated Leonardo’s mind, in a way that is both highly readable and very informative."--Jamie Wyeth "Bulent Atalay takes us on a delightful romp through millenia and across continents, bringing together art, architecture, science, and mathematics under the umbrella of Leonardo’s genius. His writing is informed by his artist’s eye for beauty, his historian’s appreciation of context, and his scientist’s love of order and symmetry. I read Atalay’s description of Leonardo’s "The Last Supper" not long after having visited the masterpiece in Milan, for the first time since its restoration. His words added an unexpected poignancy to that sublime experience. Leonardo is the prototype for the renaissance man--artist, architect, philosopher, scientist, writer. There are few like him today, but Atalay is indeed a modern renaissance man, and he invites us to tap the power of synthesis that is Leonardo’s model."--William D. Phillips, winner of the 1997 Nobel Prize in Physics. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
