Mathematics of Harmony – Alexey Stakhov

Fascinating book: Mathematics of Harmony by Alexey Stakhov. I found this book while doing some research on Elliott Waves. Other topics of interest: Golden Ratio and Fibonacci p-codes. Chapter nine is fascinating and it’s incredible that George M. Bergman was only twelve years old when he published the paper, A number system with an irrational base.

Who is Alexey Stakhov? Do a Google search on him to learn more about this scientist with over 500 publications, 14 books, and 65 international patents. Note: Do a Google search for the book’s ISBN number: 981277582X to find a pdf on DepositFiles 🙂

The Elliott Wave Principle

 

In the financial industry many models are based on Geometric Brownian Motion. However, these models tend to be inadequate and breakdown when the assumptions are violated. Searching for better stochastic models to model the market, I recently ran across an interesting topic in the field of market prediction and structure — the ideas of Ralph Nelson Elliott. It is remarkable that his ideas of market waves and structure were formulated in the 1930’s.  His ideas were popularized by Robert Prechter who has numerous books and articles written on the subject. In this post I have introduced these ideas and will post all the articles and books I have and will read on this subject. I hope to develop these ideas further.

Bully for Brontosaurus – Stephen Jay Gould

For my first book by Stephen Jay Gould, I randomly chose Bully for Brontosaurus. This collection of essays provides thought provoking stories in human and biological history. I look forward to reading more of Gould’s works.

Genome: The Autobiography of a Species in 23 Chapters – Matt Ridley

I started started reading Genome: The Autobiography of a Species in 23 Chapters, my first time reading anything by Matt Ridley. Ridley knows how to synthesize a great non-fiction novel from dry scientific facts. In this regard, I think he is similar to Carl Zimmer.

Insectopedia – Hugh Raffles

The Big Think interview with Hugh Raffles changed the way I think about insects. I want to read his book, Insectopedia. Cool and interesting man with unique perspective on anthropology.
