{"product_id":"the-honors-class-ben-yandell-9781568812168","title":"The Honors Class: Hilbert's Problems and Their Solvers","description":"This eminently readable book focuses on the people of mathematics and draws the reader into their fascinating world. In a monumental address, given to the International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris in 1900, David Hilbert, perhaps the most respected mathematician of his time, developed a blueprint for mathematical research in the new century. Jokingly called a natural introduction to thesis writing with examples, this collection of problems has indeed become a guiding inspiration to many mathematicians, and those who succeeded in solving or advancing their solutions form an Honors Class among research mathematicians of this century. In a remarkable labor of love and with the support of many of the major players in the field, Ben Yandell has written a fascinating account of the achievements of this Honors Class, covering mathematical substance and biographical aspects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ben Yandell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1568812167\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781568812168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e A K PETERS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/12\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 498\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Independent Publisher Book Awards - Finalist","brand":"Ben Yandell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939684253951,"sku":"9781568812168","price":42.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_754b389d-c2f2-4e51-a0c4-51e558f3b312.jpg?v=1681442910","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-honors-class-ben-yandell-9781568812168","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
