Già oggetto di un diluvio di recensioni, tra cui una sul Biurlington, il volume è una boccata d’ossigeno per lo studio dell’architettura inglese del Settecento. Un seguito a lungo atteso e una revisione critica necessaria del libro di Rykwert sugli Adam.

I think this is a great text for students who just completed Physics II (Fisica II). It provides the origins of concepts learned in Physics II (Fisica II) by gently introducing advanced electrodynamics concepts in a very understandable means.

Almost all students at Politecnico write their final theses using LaTeX. In LaTeX, there is a user package called TikZ, which is a vector graphic tool that can be used in LaTeX documents. It is one of a few manuals related to TikZ available in the market.

This book discusses the forces and technological innovations that profoundly and permanently transformed the global economy. I believe this to be a valuable read for engineers.

In mathematics, you see things like “A Geometric Approach” so often without any real reason to back up these texts’ named approaches more than their peers’ generic takes. This is not the case with this book. The emphasis is on intuition but the author does not shy away from advanced concepts. The many diagrams and graphs have practical reasons to be there as they help with understanding. The examples are given to motivate the reader to do a great job at it. There are also some proofs whenever the proof is not very big. There are also proofs when the proof directly helps with the understanding. The writing style is also great, mixing a formal type of writing with a more conversational style.
It is of great use to physicists, engineers, and mathematicians to understand and reinforce one’s intuition behind these concepts (suitable for MA I and MA II students).
Also, the author states in the preface that the Feynman Lectures were a great influence due to the way that Feynman explained everything! So, this is a strong indication of an author trying(and succeeding) to write a book on mathematics using that very powerful way of thinking and explaining.
