La muerte en Venecia (9781937482954)

"La muerte en Venecia" es la historia de Gustavo Von Aschenbach, un veterano y gran artista, pero que en el fondo, era un alma agotada, capaz de sobrevivir sólo en el artificio, que de pronto descubre la belleza espontánea que se manifiesta sin esfuerzos y sin titubeos en la figura angelical de un adolescente polaco. Todo empieza cuando Aschenbach, tras sufrir una crisis creativa, llega al hotel Lido de Venecia para pasar una temporada de vacaciones en solitario, con el fin, no sólo de reflexionar sobre su vida, lo que hace, ha hecho y ha dejado de hacer, sino, también de dar descanso a un cuerpo extenuado, envejecido y enfermo, pero en ello y sin previsión alguna, descubre al joven turista por el cual ha de sentir una súbita e intensa atracción hasta los últimos instantes de su vida.

Elliptic Curves (9789811221835)

This book uses the beautiful theory of elliptic curves to introduce the reader to some of the deeper aspects of number theory. It assumes only a knowledge of the basic algebra, complex analysis, and topology usually taught in first-year graduate courses.An elliptic curve is a plane curve defined by a cubic polynomial. Although the problem of finding the rational points on an elliptic curve has fascinated mathematicians since ancient times, it was not until 1922 that Mordell proved that the points form a finitely generated group. There is still no proven algorithm for finding the rank of the group, but in one of the earliest important applications of computers to mathematics, Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer discovered a relation between the rank and the numbers of points on the curve computed modulo a prime. Chapter IV of the book proves Mordell's theorem and explains the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer.Every elliptic curve over the rational numbers has an L-series attached to it.

The Burnout Society (9780804795098)

Our competitive, service-oriented societies are taking a toll on the late-modern individual. Rather than improving life, multitasking, "user-friendly" technology, and the culture of convenience are producing disorders that range from depression to attention deficit disorder to borderline personality disorder. Byung-Chul Han interprets the spreading malaise as an inability to manage negative experiences in an age characterized by excessive positivity and the universal availability of people and goods. Stress and exhaustion are not just personal experiences, but social and historical phenomena as well. Denouncing a world in which every against-the-grain response can lead to further disempowerment, he draws on literature, philosophy, and the social and natural sciences to explore the stakes of sacrificing intermittent intellectual reflection for constant neural connection.
