"The Art of Doing Science and Engineering: Learning to Learn" was the capstone course by Dr. Richard W. Hamming (1915-1998) for graduate students at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) in Monterey California. This course is intended to instill a "style of thinking" that will enhance one's ability to function as a problem solver of complex technical issues. With respect, students sometimes called the course "Hamming on Hamming" because he relates many research collaborations, discoveries, inventions and achievements of his own. This collection of stories and carefully distilled insights relates how those discoveries came about. Most importantly, these presentations provide objective analysis about the thought processes and reasoning that took place as Dr. Hamming, his associates and other major thinkers, in computer science and electronics, progressed through the grand challenges of science and engineering in the twentieth century. |

Dr. Richard W. Hamming's presentation to students and faculty for an NPS Superintendent's Guest Lecture (SGL), 4 April 1990. The subject of the talk was "The Future of Science and Engineering", but ranged widely to include encouraging NPS students to imagine and plan for the Future Navy of 2020, and to adopt an intentional stance toward taking a leading role in not only the Navy, but in history. |
