Soft cover. Condition: New. Galois theory is the culmination of a centuries-long search for a solution to the classical problem of solving algebraic equations by radicals. In this book, Bewersdorff follows the historical development of the theory, emphasizing concrete examples along the way. As a result, many mathematical abstractions are now seen as the natural consequence of particular investigations. Few prerequisites are needed beyond general college mathematics, since the necessary ideas and properties of groups and fields are provided as needed. Results in Galois theory are formulated first in a concrete, elementary way, then in the modern form. Each chapter begins with a simple question that gives the reader an idea of the nature and difficulty of what lies ahead. The applications of the theory to geometric constructions, including the ancient problems of squaring the circle, duplicating the cube, and trisecting an angle, and the construction of regular -gons are also presented.…

Soft cover. Condition: New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. "Glück, Logik und Bluff" by Jörg Bewersdorff is an intriguing exploration of the intricate relationship between luck, logic, and the art of bluffing, particularly within the realm of games and decision-making. This book delves into the foundational concepts of game theory and probability, illuminating how these elements intersect to shape outcomes in competitive settings, from board games to high-stakes gambling.In this engaging narrative, Bewersdorff dissects the role of luck in games, illustrating how chance can significantly influence results while also emphasizing the importance of logical reasoning and strategic planning. He articulates how understanding the dynamics of luck can empower individuals to make informed decisions, whether they are playing a game, negotiating a deal, or navigating everyday situations.The book features a variety of classic games and scenarios that serve as case studies for the principles discussed. Bewersdorff employs practical examples and real-life anecdotes to bring theoretical concepts to life, making complex ideas accessible to a broad audience. His engaging writing style ensures that readers are not only informed but entertained, as they are invited to reflect on their own decision-making processes and the factors that contribute to success or failure.Moreover, "Glück, Logik und Bluff" addresses the psychology behind bluffing a skill that can provide a significant edge in both games and real-world situations. Bewersdorff examines how bluffing operates on a psychological level, discussing the nuances of reading opponents and the strategic deployment of deception. This aspect of the book highlights the interplay between intuition and logic, shedding light on how effective bluffing can alter the dynamics of competition.The text also touches upon broader themes such as risk assessment and cognitive biases, providing insights into how these factors influence human behavior in uncertain situations. By understanding the principles of probability and strategy, readers can enhance their critical thinking skills and improve their ability to navigate complex scenarios.Ultimately, "Glück, Logik und Bluff" serves as a compelling resource for anyone interested in the mathematics of games, psychology, or decision-making. It encourages readers to embrace the unpredictability of life while developing the logical tools necessary to thrive in various situations. Whether you're a casual gamer, a business professional, or simply curious about the mechanics of chance and strategy, this book offers valuable insights that resonate beyond the gaming table.In summary, Jörg Bewersdorff's work is not just a treatise on games; it is an invitation to reflect on the nature of luck, the power of logic, and the art of bluffing as integral components of human interaction and decision-making. This comprehensive examination of these themes makes "Glück, Logik und Bluff" a noteworthy addition to the literature on game theory and behavioral economics.…
