Extractions: Crowe took the starring role in A Beautiful Mind . This was the story of John Nash, a brilliant mathematician who descended into mental illness for several decades before recovering to become a joint winner of the Nobel Prize for economics in 1994 for his work on "game theory." While traditional economic theory was concerned with the behaviour of individuals or firms who could not affect their environment, in game theory interactions with others are studied in a highly stylised form with players, pay-offs and strategies. Game theory is now indispensable in the design of public auctions as well as in evolutionary biology. While the detail is highly mathematical many of its concepts have entered public discourse. Examples are zero sum games and non-cooperative equilibria. The Nash Equilibrium, invented in 1950, is the best result that can be achieved by players who do not co-operate but know each other's possible moves. A standard example is that of two drivers in virgin territory deciding on which side of the road to drive. If both drive either on the right or on the left it is a Nash Equilibrium: any other result is not. But in more complex cases the Nash Equilibrium is not always the best possible one that could be achieved if there were co-operation or the intervention of some enlightened despot.

Chemical Biography - Pathfinder The nobel prize winners Chemistry. summarize each winner s achievements and nobel lecture, and offer list obituaries and other biographical information sources http://www.lib.utexas.edu/chem/info/biography.html
Extractions: All titles listed are shelved in the Chemistry Library's reference section unless otherwise noted. Chemical biography can be divided into two areas: 1) historical biography and 2) current directory information. This guide offers a list of sources for finding biographical information on chemists, with an emphasis on historical figures. While chemistry has a rich and extensive historical record, biographical information on most individuals is often sparse and limited to brief data about birth and death dates, education, employment, and major accomplishments. It's rare to find substantial published biographical information on chemists, unless the subject was very famous indeed. But perserverence and a little digging can often produce a good amount of information. GENERAL SCIENCE BIOGRAPHICAL SOURCES American Men and Women of Science.

Extractions: Try Content: Activities Worksheets PURPOSE This is the section where we try to spark the individual's INTEREST . We discuss the reasons for studying and help them establish personal short term goals (to pass a test) and long term goals (to become an engineer). We try to instill in the individuals our value of education. We try to relate it to immediate and specific goals rather than abstract goals. Here is the place where the story about walking 10 miles to school applies. It is at this point that discussion about famous individuals and their subsequent successes resulting from good studying and learning practices, is employed. At this point we also ACTIVATE or "charge up" the youngsters. Whatever it takes to get our students to learn - incentives, rewards, stickers, subliminal measures, hugs, affirmations. Educational research has always supported the concept that no matter what the program is, it's success is guaranteed if the individuals involved are enthusiastic.
