Geometry of Grief
14.99 €
Michael Frame (born 1951), mathematician, former Yale professor and colleague of the creator of fractal theory Benoit Mandelbrot, in his book explores the phenomenon of grief from a geometrical perspective. We grieve when we lose a loved one, a pet, a former way of life - something beloved and important to us. How can fractals, trajectories, and variables diminish this heartache? Frame argues that understanding the "geometry" of one's experiences can help one get through the loss. In analyzing grief as an irreversible loss, he turns to the laws of mathematics, literary stories, evolutionary biology, and personal experience. With their help, Frame derives his own theorems that allow him to see and analyze, through the "self-similarity" of life choices, the theory of the multiverse, and the projection of negative emotions into different "spaces" of consciousness, the complex pattern of feelings that make up grief.
