*** A TO Z OF MATHEMATICIANS (NOTABLE SCIENTISTS) *** by Mcelroy, Tucker ![]() Click Here to Download this Ebook Type: eBook Released: 2004-00-00 Publisher: Facts on File Page Count: 321 Format: djvu Language: English Description: From School Library Journal Grade 9 Up–This volume profiles 150 mathematicians from around the globe, only six of whom are women. McElroy's focus is on historical figures who lived before 1900, whose work has stood the test of time. Each entry has basic biographical information when known and a description of the subject's accomplishments. The language flows easily, almost conversationally. The author states in his introduction that he has written the book with general readers in mind. Each entry concludes with a list of further resources. However, some of the bibliographic references would be difficult to find for students who do not have access to academic libraries and databases. Average-quality, black-and-white illustrations appear throughout. Helpful resources include lists of people by field, country of birth, country of major scientific activity, and year of birth, and a chronology. A final bibliography lists all of the books and journal articles mentioned in each entry and Internet sources. Students whose course of study focuses on mathematics would be most likely to benefit from this work. The Dictionary of Scientific Biography (Gale, 1998) and the Encyclopedia Britannica offer similar information. Robyn Young's Notable Mathematicians (Gale, 1998) would also be of interest to this audience.–Maureen Connelly, John C. Hart Memorial Library, Shrub Oak, NY Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. From Another title in the Facts on File Notable Scientists series, designed to give concise information to students in grades nine and up. It includes information on about 140 individuals--their work, families, major achievements, and contributions to their scientific field. Entries are alphabetically arranged, run about 750 to 1,200 words, and are often accompanied by a small black-and-white photo. The volume tries to be representative of men and women from many countries and throughout history although, with the exception of Kurt Godel, mathematicians born in the twentieth century are excluded. Among those who are covered are Archimedes, Jakob Bernoulli, Ada Lovelace, and Srinivasa Aiyangar Ramanujan. In-text cross-references to other articles within the volume are done in bold type. There are lists of entries sorted by field, country of birth, country of major activity, and time period, in addition to a general index. The bibliography lists mostly journal articles and books, with a short, selective list of math Web sites. "Further Reading" follows each entry (usually two to four older journal articles). This title is more inviting and easier to use than Isaac Asimov's trusty Biographical Encyclopedia of Science and Technology (rev. ed., Doubleday, 1982). It will be a useful though not essential purchase, where the other series titles are used. Susan GoodenCopyright © American Library Association.
