4.0 out of 5 stars
It is a very nice description of the life a mathematician from a person not from a mathematics background.
Touches the Heart and the Mind
This work touches the heart and informs the mind. Maybe the best biography I have read. Hilbert the fascinating mathematican combined with a marvelous writer. Great!Reid connects three themes to the melody of Hilbert's life - the people, the environment and, most of all, the mathematics. Minkowski, Klein, Hurwitz, Weyl, Courant, Born, Siegel, Noether, Sommerfeld and many more are not just mentioned, but come to life.The ambience of Königsberg, Göttingen and the changing German world are carefull
Five Stars
A very interesting read
Wonderful, sensitive portrait
A wonderful book and a sensitive portrait of one of the greatest and most versatile mathematicians in history who was also a great human being. The book is as much a paean to the romantic mathematical life as anything else. From his perch in Göttingen, Hilbert took German mathematics to great heights until it was brought crashing down by politics and Nazism. His finest hour came in World War 1 when he and Einstein refused to sign a shameful, jingoistic manifesto claiming Germany as the victim ra
Great book. Required reading for a graduate math course
Great book. Required reading for a graduate math course. Explained Hilbert's life, in a conversational manner.Those with little or no math background may have a tough time.
