剧情简介
A sharp, witty, mind-expanding and exuberant foray into the world of logic with computer scientist Professor Dave Cliff. Following in the footsteps of the award-winning 'The Joy of Stats' and its sequel, 'Tails You Win - The Science of Chance', this film takes viewers on a new rollercoaster ride through philosophy, maths, science and technology- all of which, under the bonnet, run on logic. Wielding the same wit and wisdom, animation and gleeful nerdery as its predecessors, this film journeys from Aristotle to Alice in Wonderland, sci-fi to supercomputers to tell the fascinating story of the quest for certainty and the fundamentals of sound reasoning itself. Dave Cliff, professor of computer science and engineering at Bristol University, is no abstract theoretician. 15 years ago he combined logic and a bit of maths to write one of the first computer programs to outperform humans at trading stocks and shares. Giving away the software for free, he says, was not his most logical move... With the help of 25 seven-year-olds, Professor Cliff creates, for the first time ever, a computer made entirely of children, running on nothing but logic. We also meet the world's brainiest whizz-kids, competing at the International Olympiad of Informatics in Brisbane, Australia. 'The Joy of Logic' also hails logic's all-time heroes: George Boole who moved logic beyond philosophy to mathematics Bertrand Russell, who took 360+ pages but heroically proved that 1 + 1 = 2 Kurt Godel, who brought logic to its knees by demonstrating that some truths are unprovable and Alan Turing, who, with what Cliff calls an 'almost exquisite paradox', was inspired by this huge setback to logic to conceive the computer. Ultimately, the film asks, can humans really stay ahead? Could today's generation of logical computing machines be smarter than us? What does that tell us about our own brains, and just how 'logical' we really are...?

轻松有趣配乐萌，从图灵开始变得更有意思。
太浅了没有更新我的常识pool，但是看到OI陈立杰也是醉了，以及最后我发现其中一个被采访的人是当年看的oxford公开课intro to general phil的prof也是醉了；最终我自己都被自己“怎么什么都知道”的尿性给震惊到了。。。
很可爱，很多人从来没意识过逻辑是如何改变世界进程的，顺便压了数学一头，没有逻辑就没有数学，这么说好悖论，改成数学的核心是逻辑好一点。看的时候想起了一些自称懂科学或者有思想的人的逻辑是多么糟糕，而我逻辑糟糕就少装逼吧。
我以为这部纪录片是让我们学习逻辑以及思辨，但其实更像是告诉我们逻辑学的进化史，而且关注更多的是逻辑和数学 科学的关系。我是数学白痴，所以很多内容都是不懂的。呃，对待自己不懂的知识，就让它继续沉默吧。补充一点，记得其中的一句话，逻辑是关于真理和确定性的学科。以及黑道尔还是别的什么名字，我先记录着，以后有空看看他的学说。
