Who Is Fourier?: A Mathematical Adventure
In Who is Fourier? A Mathematical Adventure, the student authors take the reader along on their adventure of discovery of Fourier's wave analysis, creating a work that gradually moves from basics to the more complicated mathematics of trigonometry, exponentiation, differentiation, and integration. This is done in a way that is not only easy to understand, but is actually fun!
Professors and engineers, with high school and college students following closely, comprise the largest percentage of our readers. It is a must-have for anyone interested in music, mathematics, physics, engineering, or complex science.
Dr. Yoichiro Nambu, 2008 Nobel Prize Winner in Physics, served as a senior adviser to the English version of Who is Fourier? A Mathematical Adventure.
The Second Edition includes a new Foreword by Dan Rockmore, William H. Neukom Professor of Computational Science, Director of the Neukom Institute for Computational Science, Professor of Computer Science, and Chair of the Department of Mathematics at Dartmouth College.
