为什么值得读
- 将计算机作为探索与推导数学概念的全新媒介
- 让人深刻体会早期编程的纯粹乐趣与巨大潜力
- 基于Logo方言且图形逻辑易在现代语言中实现
Turtle Geometry 提出了一套创新性的数学探索方案，展示了个人电脑的高效使用如何深刻转变学生接触数学的本质方式。借助本书和几个简易的计算机程序，学生可以通过追踪屏幕上一只虚拟海龟的移动轨迹来探索空间特性。turtle geometry 这一概念源自 MIT 的 Logo Group。该小组由 Mindstorms 的作者 Seymour Papert 领导，在学龄前儿童、中学生和大学本科生群体中开展了大量的实践工作。

这可不只是周末随便玩玩就能搞定的东西：《Turtle Geometry: The Computer as a Medium for Exploring Mathematics》 http://www.amazon.com/Turtle-Geometry-Mathematics-Artificial... ……而且我还没试过，不过 netlogo 听起来挺有意思的。https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/
Something more than a weekend splurge: Turtle Geometry: The Computer as a Medium for Exploring Mathematics http://www.amazon.com/Turtle-Geometry-Mathematics-Artificial... ...and I've not yet tried it, but netlogo sounds interesting. https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/
我最近找来了 Abelson 和 diSessa 写的《Turtle Geometry》。读起来简直令人震撼。它真的能让你体会到当年的编程蕴含着何等的乐趣和潜力。坦白说，你会开始觉得编程……
I recently picked up 'Turtle Geometry' from Abelson and diSessa. And it was a mind blowing experience. Really makes you think what kind of fun programming was about back then and its potential. Frankly speaking you begin to feel programming…
转一个来自 abecedarius 本不该沉掉的被删帖：我认为这些书都有极高的“我想读度”：Abelson 和 diSessa 的《Turtle Geometry》；Abelson 和 Sussman 的《Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs》；Aho、Weinberger 和 Kernighan 的《The AWK Programming Language》；Andrew Appel 的《Compiling With Continuations》；Jon Bentley 的……
Reposting a dead post which should not have been dead, from abecedarius: These had high I-want-to-read-itosity, I thought: Abelson and diSessa, Turtle Geometry Abelson and Sussman, Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs Aho and Weinberger and Kernighan, The AWK Programming Language Andrew Appel, Compiling With Continuations Jon Bentley,…

This is not to mention that learning how to program a computer is just another tool to put in your bags of tricks for solving problems in any of the domains you mentioned (some…
我觉得 Hal Abelson 的书《Turtle Geometry》[1] 很有意思。它描述了一种 Logo 方言（其中的图形例程用 Python/Tkinter、Tcl/Tk 或者 Processing 之类的东西实现起来应该相对容易）。一旦基础掌握了……
I find Hal Abelson's book Turtle Geometry [1] fascinating. It describes a dialect of Logo (the graphical routines could probably be implemented relatively easily in Python/Tkinter or Tcl/Tk or something like Processing). Once the basics are…
……这确实是相当惊艳的著作。虽然我一开始调研 Logo 是为了教我的孩子，但现在我也在为自己搜寻一些很久以前非常棒的 Logo 书籍，比如 Harold Abelson 写的《Turtle Geometry》。没错，就是写 SICP 的那个 Abelson。
…it to be really quite the impressive work, and while I began my Logo investigations to teach my kids, I'm now also trying to track down some great looking Logo books from the long distant past, like "Turtle Geometry" by Harold Abelson for myself. Yes, that Abelson.
