Significant Figures: The Lives and Work of Great Mathematicians
by Ian Stewart
Noted mathematician Ian Stewart leads us through the life and work of 25 pioneering mathematicians. The greats we all know are here - Fermat, Newton, Fourier, Mandelbrot, Godel - as well as some we likely don't - Hui, Noether, Galois, Cardano, al-Khwarizmi. The advance praise for this book is everywhere - on the single-spaced back cover, the extra added page upfront. An excellent read.
