Carl Friedrich Gauss: Titan of Science

G. Waldo Dunnington, Jeremy Gray, Fritz-Egbert Dohse088385547X, 9780883855478

Книга о жизни и научных достижениях одного из величайших математиков за всю историю Карла Фридриха Гаусса. This biography of Gauss, by far the most comprehensive in English, is the work of a professor of German, G. Waldo Dunnington, who devoted most of his scholarly career to studying the life of Germanys greatest mathematician. The author was inspired to pursue this project at the age of twelve when he learned from his teacher in Missouri that no full biography of Gauss existed at the time. His teacher was Gausss great granddaughter, Minna Waldeck Gauss.
