如果你属于那种认为学习任何数学领域的最佳途径都是回顾“我们是如何走到这一步”的历史派,那我推荐最近那本《女士品茶》(The Lady Tasting Tea)。它追溯了开创统计学领域的伟大数学泰斗们的历史,解释了他们当时试图解决的问题、他们如何以及为何能解决这些问题,以及未来的问题又如何……
If you're of the mathematical school that thinks the best way to learn any math field is to walk through the history of how we got here, then I'd recommend the recent book "The Lady Tasting Tea". It traces through the history of the great mathematical minds who created the field of statistics, explains the problems they were solving, how and why they were able to solve them, and how future problems…

……那些遥远的(或者曾经遥远的?)事物,并去质疑各种假设:很多我们习以为常视作绝对真理的观念,其实仅仅源于群体共识,并没有客观现实基础。2. 类似主题的《女士品茶》(David Salsburg 著)是一部极佳的统计学发展史。看到各个鲜活的个性如何在时代浪潮中受到冲击并塑造……真是让我感到无比着迷。
…that are (were?) distant and to question assumptions: a lot of ideas that we take for granted as absolute truths are simply consensus-derived and have no objective reality. 2. On a similar theme, “The Lady Tasting Tea” (David Salsburg) was a wonderful history of the development of statistics as a mathematical discipline. I found it absolutely fascinating to map out how individual personalities were buffeted and shaped…
