Reviews

The book can be considered as both an emotional and exciting novel ... . It was a great honor and quite a privilege for me to have had the opportunity to meet Petri several times during my career, and it would be great if many people who did not have that opportunity could now get to know him by reading this book, which I strongly recommend. (David de Frutos Escrig, Mathematical Reviews, January, 2017)
