Quello tra musica e matematica è da sempre un dialogo fitto e profondo. Secondo molti studiosi le composizioni di Bach sono governate da una logica matematica, e Stravinskij ha ravvisato un'affascinante prossimità tra le due discipline. Stockhausen è andato oltre, scrivendo musica esplicitamente basata su principi matematici. Ma non è tutto, sostiene Eli Maor, perché tra note e numeri le influenze sono reciproche e il loro rapporto, per questo, ancora più stimolante. Pitagora e il legame tra musica e geometria, la curiosa simultaneità tra la teoria della relatività di Einstein e la musica dodecafonica di Schoenberg, la tanto dibattuta teoria delle stringhe, che si mettono a vibrare come le corde di un violino; sono tutti tasselli di uno straordinario racconto che vede protagonisti compositori, scienziati, inventori e semplici stravaganti.

By any measure, the Pythagorean theorem is the most famous statement in all of mathematics, one remembered from high school geometry class by even the most math-phobic students. Well over four hundred proofs are known to exist, including ones by a twelve-year-old Einstein, a young blind girl, Leonardo da Vinci, and a future president of the United States. Here–perhaps for the first time in English–is the full story of this famous theorem.

Trigonometric Delights by Eli Maor

Trigonometry has always been the black sheep of mathematics. It has a reputation as a dry and difficult subject, a glorified form of geometry complicated by tedious computation. In this book, Eli Maor draws on his remarkable talents as a guide to the world of numbers to dispel that view. Rejecting the usual arid descriptions of sine, cosine, and their trigonometric relatives, he brings the subject to life in a compelling blend of history, biography, and mathematics. He presents both a survey of the main elements of trigonometry and a unique account of its vital contribution to science and social development. Woven together in a tapestry of entertaining stories, scientific curiosities, and educational insights, the book more than lives up to the title Trigonometric Delights.
