In spirit, this book is closer to Elements de Geometrie Algebrique (EGA) than the existing textbooks on algebraic geometry. It prvides an introduction to schemes, formal schemesc coherent sheaves, and their cohomologies. The prerequisites for reading this book is the knowledge of commutative algebra up to the level of Ateyah-Macdonald's book. The material on algebraic geometry covered in this book provides adequate preparation for reading more advanced books such as Seminaire de Geometrie Algebrique （SGA）.

《卡拉比–丘流形和相关几何》是由2001年夏天norway，nordfjordeid讲述辛几何的讲义扩展而成。突出讲述calabi-yau是本书的最大特点。第一部分讲述完整群和已校准子流形，强调特殊拉格朗日算符子流形和syz猜想；第二部分运用代数几何讲述calabi-yau流形和镜子对称。最后一部分讲述紧hyperkahler流形，它具有的几何结果和calabi-yau流形有很大的关系。各部分之间过渡自然，衔接紧密紧密，是一部很好的教程。目次：黎曼完整群和已校准的几何；calabi-yau流形和镜子对称；紧hyperk?hler流形。 读者对象：数学专业的高年级本科生，研究生和科研人员。

"Discrete Mathematics and its Applications, Sixth Edition", is intended for one- or two-term introductory discrete mathematics courses taken by students from a wide variety of majors, including computer science, mathematics, and engineering. This renowned best-selling text, which has been used at over 500 institutions around the world, gives a focused introduction to the primary themes in a discrete mathematics course and demonstrates the relevance and practicality of discrete mathematics to a wide variety of real-world applications...from computer science to data networking, to psychology, to chemistry, to engineering, to linguistics, to biology, to business, and to many other important fields.

《数学美拾趣》不是系统论述数学美，而是将数学中美的精彩内容的片段摘出，从艺术和思维的角度加以欣赏；或是阐述某一个事物与数学的联系，从中体现出一种数学美。赏析之下，会觉得情趣盎然，在美的熏陶下，得到感情的共鸣和思维的启迪。 读者不仅可以从书中学到许多课本上学不到的知识，更重要的是可以学到一些灵活多变的思维方法，培养科学探索的精神。因此，《数学美拾趣》是具有中等文化程度的读者，特别是青少年的一本非常有益的读物。

Review "[Apollonius's Conics] is one of the greatest scientific books of antiquity." "[Apollonius was a] giant, not simply as compared with men of antiquity, but even with men of all times. ... [T]he ingenuity that enabled him to discover so much with imperfect tools [i.e., lacking the arts of analytic and projective geometry] is truly admirable...such achievements pass our imagination, they are almost weird." --George Sarton, from An Introduction to the History of Science and A History of Science If we want to read for ourselves authors like Kepler and Newton, or if we want to understand the significance of the Cartesian mathematics that has shaped the world we live in and shapes our minds as wellóeither way, whether to understand the past in its own terms or to understand the present as a deliberate transformation of the pastówe need to study Apollonius." --Harvey Flaumenhaft Dean, St. John's College, Annapolis Product Description The Conics of Apollonius (3rd Century BCE) is the culmination of the brilliant geometrical tradition of ancient Greece. With astonishing virtuosity, and with a storyteller's flair for thematic development, Apollonius leads the reader through the mysteries of these intriguing curved lines, treated as objects of pure mathematics. His work in turn provided a basis for the very differently conceived investigations of modern mathematicians and scientists such as Viète, Descartes, Kepler, and Newton. Reading the Conics is an unparalleled adventure into the highest reaches of human intellectual achievement. This is a completely new edition of Taliaferro's translation of the first three books of Apollonius's Conics, with all new diagrams. It is the only English translation of these books other than Heath's out-of-print version which is a modernized retelling rather than a true translation. Conics Books I--III were formerly included in Volume 11 of the Encyclopædia Britannica's Great Books of the Western World, but the work is no longer included in that series and has been out of print. We made many corrections to the old edition's text, translation, and notes. The book features all new diagrams, an index, a bibliography, and an introductory essay by Harvey Flaumenhaft. Design and layout make it easy to read and work with, with diagrams repeated on every spread, adequate space for notes, and high quality paper to prevent show-through.
