Reviews

This is a lively and readable account of one of the great problems of mathematics and its solution and can be recommended to all readers who are interested and prepared to make the effort to follow it. The Mathematical Gazette ... it will please every reader. And last but not least, it is a thin book, which will not eat much space in your library; the contents to weight ratio is well above the average. EMS
