Recenzii
The Mathematical World of Charles L. Dodgson (Lewis Carroll) is an important contribution to the vast literature on Charles Dodgson/Lewis Carroll. It is the first academic work that collects the research on Dodgson's wide-ranging mathematical achievements into a single practical volume.
Wilson and Mokte 's volume will be the standard work on Dodgson's mathematics for many years to come.
...this is a great volume, highlighting an aspect of Charles L Dodgson's life not familiar to the broader public. It is well accessible to non-specialists with its contextualization of the topics treated and its elementary examples, but with its many puzzles and riddles sometimes also challenging even for experts. Numerous illustrations, above all portraits and reproductions from manuscripts, invite the reader to dig deeper.
A truly beautiful publication on the mathematical work of Lewis Carroll.
The book is beautifully typeset with many photographs and prints - it has all the charm of a coffee table book, and yet it also manages to be learned and scholarly in its approach, never sacrificing accuracy in the name of accessibility. It is full of delightful anecdotesas well as lucid discussion of complex mathematical theory.
This is not a coffee table book about Lewis Carroll, but a scholarly textbook containing the latest research outlining and assessing his contribution to mathematics ... This is very well researched and very well written ... providing an excellent and critical summary of his mathematical works.
This book completes a survey of the life and work of a mathematician that is in many ways the opposite of the light-hearted Lewis Carroll... This nicely edited book with many illustrations and written by experts on the subject will certainly allow you to form a proper opinion about Charles Dodgson.
It is a book that introduces and explains the most fundamental ideas that underpin our discipline, but crucially it does so in a way that the author has carefully thought through with a view to making these understandable to the reader.
