The New Ambidextrous Universe: Symmetry and Asymmetry from Mirror Reflections to Superstrings

Autor Martin Gardner
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2005

"What makes Gardner so appealing is his ease in exploring deep ideas . . . and making them accessible to the interested but nontechnical reader. This is a special talent and no one has ever displayed it quite as well as he does." -- "Los Angeles Times
""Absorbing; enlightening; lucid; witty; inventive. An exemplar of science writing at its very best." -- "American Mathematical Monthly
"A substantial revision of Martin Gardner's earlier well-known work on mirror symmetry and asymmetry, "The New Ambidextrous Universe "takes readers on an extraordinary journey. With Gardner's guidance, they explore the two fundamental scientific discoveries of the past century: the asymmetric DNA helix and the overthrow of parity (left-right symmetry) in particle physics. Along the way, students will find absorbing and thought-provoking treatments of some of the deepest mysteries in modern physics.
Author of more than 60 books, Martin Gardner has influenced and inspired generations of scientists, scholars, and other readers, especially those with an interest in mathematics. He originated "Scientific American"'s popular Mathematical Games column, which he wrote from 1956 until his retirement from the magazine three decades later. This republication of his revised edition of an earlier work features a new appendix of notes and corrections.
