杨振宁的科学世界：数学与物理的交融
Description
"Edited by Lizhen Ji and Kailiang Lin, The Scientific World of Yang Chen-Ning: The Blending of Mathematics and Physics (hardcover) is suitable for readers interested in Mr. Yang's academic achievements and the development of 20th-century mathematics and physics.
Professor Chen-Ning Yang is an outstanding physicist of China, a world-renowned master of physics, and the winner of the 1957 Nobel Prize in Physics. He is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a foreign academician of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. Professor Yang has made a series of groundbreaking and epoch-making contributions in fields such as gauge field theory and statistical mechanics. Moreover, he has played a significant role in promoting cultural exchanges and scientific cooperation between China and the United States.
杨振宁先生是我国杰出的物理学家、世界级物理学大师、1957年诺贝尔物理学奖获得者、中国科学院院士和美国国家科学院外籍院士，在规范场论和统计力学等领域做出了大量划时代的开创性工作，并在促进中美两国文化交流和科技合作等方面做出了突出的贡献。
Yang Chen-Ning admired the elegance and power of mathematics. Throughout his remarkable and fulfilling life, he engaged in exchanges with many eminent mathematicians and physicists of the 20th century, such as Shiing-Shen Chern, Shing-Tung Yau, Enrico Fermi, and Paul Dirac. As a world-leading figure in physics and an active promoter and keen observer in the field of mathematics, Mr. Yang has developed insightful and unique perspectives on mathematics, physics, and their interplay. This book collects and compiles a series of his articles centered around this theme.
Compared to other previously published collections of Yang Chen-Ning's writings, this volume stands out by emphasizing his taste and appreciation for mathematics and mathematicians as one of the great theoretical physicists of the 20th century. The book is divided into four parts: the first part includes a lengthy interview with Mr. Yang as well as his recollections of mathematicians and physicists; the second part features some of Mr. Yang's popular lectures; the third part presents his historical reflections on theoretical physics, reflecting his profound and far-reaching contemplations as a great scientist; and the fourth part contains interviews or discussions about Mr. Yang. Additionally, the book includes three representative articles by Mills, Chern, and Shoucheng Zhang as appendices.
杨振宁先生欣赏数学的优美与力量，在他精彩很好的一生中，与陈省身、丘成桐、费米、狄拉克等许多20世纪的数学和物理大家都有过交流，作为物理领域的世界领军人物以及数学领域的积极推动者和敏锐观察者，杨先生对数学、物理学及其相互作用有着富有洞察力的独到见解，本书即以此为主题收集和整理了他的一系列文章。
与以往出版的其他杨振宁文章选集相比。本书的特点在于。突出了杨先生作为20世纪伟大的理论物理学家对数学和数学家的品味和欣赏。全书共分为4个部分：靠前部分包括对杨振宁先生的长篇访谈以及杨先生回忆数学家和物理学家的文章：第二部分收录杨振宁先生的一些通俗演讲：第三部分是杨振宁先生对理论物理学的历史反思，折射出他作为一位大科学家寂然凝虑、思接千载的博大情怀：第四部分刊载了关于杨振宁先生的访谈或座谈：本书还收入米尔斯、陈省身和张首晟的3篇代表性文章作为附录。
季理真、林开亮主编的《杨振宁的科学世界(数学与物理的交融)(精)》适合对杨振宁先生的学术成就以及20世纪数学和物理学发展有兴趣的读者阅读。
