A Beautiful Math: John Nash, Game Theory, And the Modern Quest for a Code of Nature By * Publisher: Joseph Henry Press * Number Of Pages: 264 * Publication Date: 2006-10-20 * Sales Rank: 46683 * ISBN / ASIN: 0309101921 * EAN: 9780309101929 * Binding: Hardcover * Manufacturer: Joseph Henry Press * Studio: Joseph Henry Press * Average Rating: 5 * Total Reviews: 4 Book Description: Millions have seen the movie and thousands have read the book but few have fully appreciated the mathematics invented by John Nash's beautiful mind. Today Nash's beautiful math has become a universal language for research in the social sciences and has infiltrated the realms of evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and even quantum physics. John Nash won the 1994 Nobel Prize in economics for pioneering research published in the 1950s on a new branch of mathematics known as game theory. At the time of Nash's early work, game theory was briefly popular among some mathematicians and Cold War analysts. But it remained relatively obscure until the 1970s, when evolutionary biologists began to find it useful. In the 1980s economists began to embrace game theory. Since then game theory math has found an ever expanding repertoire of applications among a wide range of scientific disciplines. Today neuroscientists peer into game players' brains, anthropologists play games with people from primitive cultures, biologists use games to explain the evolution of human language, and mathematicians exploit games to better understand social networks. A common thread connecting much of this research is its relevance to the ancient quest for a science of human social behavior, or "a Code of Nature," in the spirit of the fictional science of psychohistory described in the famous Foundation novels by the late Isaac Asimov. In A Beautiful Math, acclaimed science writer Tom Siegfried describes how game theory links the life sciences, social sciences and physical sciences in a way that may bring Asimov's dream closer to reality.
