Quasicrystals and geometry: a Book Review
Penrose tilings (Fig. 1) are beautiful. They also suggest significant new mathematics, so it is about time someone wrote a book about them which is readable (in fact, eminently readable) by mathematicians. The book, Quasicrystals and geometry, by Marjorie Senechal, has an even broader goal: to present certain developments in crystallography from the past decade. The developments were generated ...
متن کاملBook Review: Contemporary Sensorimotor Theory
Consciousness, with its irreducible subjective character, was almost exclusively a philosophical topic until relatively recently. Today, however, the problem of explaining the felt quality of experience has also become relevant to science and engineering, including robotics andAI: “What would we have to build into a robot so that it really felt the touch of a finger, the redness of red, or the ...
متن کاملChaos/Complexity Theory and Education
Sciences exist to demonstrate the fundamental order underlying nature. Chaos/complexity theory is a novel and amazing field of scientific inquiry. Notions of our everyday experiences are somehow in connection to the laws of nature through chaos/complexity theory’s concerns with the relationships between simplicity and complexity, between orderliness and randomness (Retrieved from http://www.inc...
متن کاملBOOK REVIEW Bohmian Mechanics and Quantum Theory
This collection Bohmian Mechanics and Quantum Theory gives us the broadest perspective yet on this important realist alternative to standard quantum theory. The book treats the history, philosophical rami"cations and consistency of theories arising from Bohm's original model and their relations to other alternative theories. Signi"cantly, it also contains applications of these theories to pract...
متن کاملBook Review: Stochastic Modeling: Theory and Reality
For decades, actuaries have historically used statistical and financial models that were inherently considered deterministic in the sense that random fluctuations are often ignored, although some type of sensitivity of the parameter and model assumptions have been employed to have a sense of the possible variation in the results. Today, such sensitivity analysis is unacceptably appropriate when...
