Recenzii

“An ‘invaluable contribution to the history of twentieth-century mathematics’. This book is as well; it is filled with interesting articles and photographs. … in one volume, we have autobiographies, expository essays, photos, and detailed bibliographies. This book is a treasure trove of interesting history and first-rate mathematics.” (Mark Hunacek, The Mathematical Gazette, Vol. 100 (547), 2016) 
“This book contains accounts of the work of the prize winners … from the period. … The essays are excellently done. … There are many photographs and a lot of good mathematics. … With the addition of high quality mathematical exposition concerning the work of some of the most important mathematical figures of the past half-century, the book becomes irresistible, a delightful addition to my library.” (Fernando Q. Gouvêa, MAA Reviews, March, 2014)
