'Roy is well-known for useful scholarship. This book continues his record.' Robert E. O'Malley, University of Washington 'I often turn to Ranjan Roy for his wide-ranging works on series, both historical and contemporary. His writing is meticulous and a pleasure to read. These volumes can be used to engage undergraduates in the exploration of mathematics through its history and as a resource for anyone working in mathematics.' David M.
