Reflections on mathematics that cannot be learned in textbooks (100 words)

Friends, in the process of human growth, interest is very important.

If so, you must write some thoughts after reading some extracurricular mathematics readings. Suggestions:

1. If you have time, you can read it. Teacher Wang Yuan’s popular science book "My Brain is Open" (written by Xie Kete, translated by Wang Yuan et al., Shanghai Translation Publishing House) is a famous mathematics A biography of Erdos. Erdos is the protagonist Erdos in "Digital Love", but the translation is different. The content of the two books is not very different, and the translation style is also similar. Wang Yuan is a famous Chinese mathematician, so he has no problem with mathematics, unlike some current mathematics books that are full of errors. The anecdotes about Erdos will not be repeated here. It is worth mentioning that after reading these two books, we should realize that Erdos is not a real weirdo. He is a Platonist who believes that mathematics is a sublime knowledge entity independent of people. Our task is to Discover her. This is what he meant when he famously said, “The best proofs are written in the books of God.” This statement is quoted in Barrow's "Pi in the Sky" and Penrose's "The Emperor's New Brain". We don’t have to imitate Erdos, but we should learn from his ultra-utilitarian spirit.

The "Philosopher's Stone Series" of Shanghai Science and Technology Education Press will soon launch the biographies of Smail, G?del and Ramanujan, all of which are translations. All three are legendary. Among them, the one written by Ramanujan is Kanigar's famous book "The One Who Knows No Boundaries". The other two books have also received high praise. "Beautiful Mind - The Biography of Nash" has been introduced a lot, so I won't leave any more words here.

In addition, Shanghai Science and Technology Press published "Hilbert - Alexander in the World of Mathematics" two years ago, which friends who love mathematics should also pay attention to.
