Blauwdrukken
Over de schoonheid in wiskunde, kunst en natuurMarcus du Sautoy, bekroond wiskundige en hoogleraar in Oxford, onthult de wiskundige blauwdrukken die verborgen zitten in alles wat we mooi vinden. In de schilderkunst, muziek en literatuur blijken deze blauwdrukken overal te vinden, en zelfs de natuur staat er bol van. Van de vroegste steencirkels tot het brutalisme van Le Corbusier, van de fuga’s van Bach tot de muziek van Radiohead, en van de tekeningen van Leonardo da Vinci tot de drip paintings van Jackson Pollock: ze blijken allemaal vol te zitten met patronen, zoals symmetrie, priemgetallen en fractals. Vaak zijn kunstenaars zich helemaal niet bewust van de wiskunde die in hun werk verborgen zit, soms maken ze er juist bewust gebruik van. In Blauwdrukken laat Marcus du Sautoy zien hoe wiskunde kunstenaars inspireert en waarom creativiteit cruciaal is voor het ontdekken van nieuwe wiskunde. Dankzij dit boek kunnen we nu allemaal de geheime codes van de schoonheid ontdekken. Marcus du Sautoy is hoogleraar wiskunde en Simonyi Professor for the Public Understanding of Science aan Oxford University. Hij schreef voor The Guardian, The Times en de Daily Telegraph en presenteerde verschillende tv-series over wiskunde voor de BBC. Van Du Sautoy verschenen eerder bij Nieuwezijds: Reis om de wereld in 80 spelletjes, Beter denken, en Wat we niet kunnen weten. ‘Niemand kan complexe wiskunde beter uitleggen aan niet-wiskundigen dan Du Sautoy. Hier belicht hij de ingewikkelde relaties tussen getallen, de natuur en de kunst, en behandelt de wiskunde die schilders, architecten, schrijvers en musici bewust of onbewust hebben geïnspireerd.’ – Financial Times ‘Du Sautoy is zeer bedreven in het tot leven brengen van wiskunde ... Ik begreep de problemen waar wiskundigen over nadenken nu beter en kon er meer van genieten, mede dankzij de creaties van kunstenaars als J.S. Bach en Jorge Luis Borges.’ – New Scientist ‘Niemand kan twijfelen aan Du Sautoy’s enthousiasme. Inspirerend leesvoer.’ – The Observer Boek van het jaar volgens de Financial Times en Waterstones.
