For those who are interested in the genesis and influence of the Hilbert Problems, I strongly recommend .... the recent book by Jeremy Gray, "...the story about the interaction of the personalities and the split between pure and applied mathematics makes very interesting reading. Mathematics is in many ways just another human endeavor, subject to petty spats, nationalistic rivalries and personal biases. While emphasis is on the famous 23 problems, enough effort is expended on what else he did to make the book as much a biography of Hilbert as it is on the problems he posed. That alone would make it well worth reading." -- Charles Ashbacher, Journal of Recreational Mathematics, May 2001"[R]ecommended to everybody interested in the twentieth century mathematics."--Zentralblatt MATH"[C]ontains illuminating information about the mathematical development and contributions of Hilbert himself and an expert's panoramic view of the mathematics in this period."--American Mathematical Monthly, "...the story about the interaction of the personalities and the split between pure and applied mathematics makes very interesting reading.

Synopsis
David Hilbert was arguably the leading mathematician of his generation. He was among the few mathematicians who could reshape mathematics, and was able to because he brought together an impressive technical power and mastery of detail with a vision of where the subject was going and how it should get there. This was the unique combination which he brought to the setting of his famous 23 Problems. Few problems in mathematics have the status of those posed by David Hilbert in 1900. Mathematicians have made their reputations by solving individual ones such as Fermat's last theorem, and several remain unsolved including the Riemann hypotheses, which has eluded all the great minds of this century. A hundred years on, it is timely to take a fresh look at the problems, the man who set them, and the reasons for their lasting impact on the mathematics of the twentieth century. In this fascinating new book, Jeremy Gray and David Rowe consider what has made this the pre-eminent collection of problems in mathematics, what they tell us about what drives mathematicians, and the nature of reputation, influence and power in the world of modern mathematics. The book is written in a clear and lively manner and will appeal both to the general reader with an interest in mathematics and to mathematicians themselves., In 1900, David Hilbert posed a set of 23 unsolved mathematical problems, thus setting an agenda for mathematics that lasted throughout the 20th Century. Some, like Fermat's last theorem, have now been solved; others, such as the Riemann hypothesis, continue to challenge the best mathematical brains of our time. This book addresses the nature of Hilbert and his problems, and their significance for the progress of mathematics in our time., Few problems in mathematics have had the status of those posed by David Hilbert in 1900. Mathematicians have made their reputations by solving some of them like Fermat's last theorem, but several remain unsolved including the Riemann Hypotheses, which has eluded all the great minds of this century. A hundred years later, this book takes a fresh look at the problems, the man who set them, and the reasons for their lasting impact on the mathematics of the twentieth century. In this fascinating book, the authors consider what makes this the pre-eminent collection of problems in mathematics, what they tell us about what drives mathematicians, and the nature of reputation, influence and power in the world of modern mathematics. It is written in a clear and entertaining style and will appeal to anyone with interest in mathematics or those mathematicians willing to try their hand at these problems.

- s***l (29)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe Seller is commendable for delivering the book almost THREE WEEKS ahead of schedule. The book is also in perfect condition exactly as advertised. In which case the Seller and Product are flawless. However, the delivery Courier was a complete let down . Such that I only discovered that the book had been dropped on my doorstep by Providence or chance. Apart from the email I received, the Courier did not make any contact with me through the street level buzzer or press my doorbell to alert me.Concepts and Approaches in Evolutionary Epistemology hardcover Fine - Like New (Nr. 317048520181)
