Review

"It is a cross between providing mathematical challenge and a cultural placement of some famous problems. I hope it will persuade non-mathematicians that mathematics is worthwhile, and provide mathematicians with some background to the personalities and history of the main stream, and, equally as important, to the quiet little-visited back-waters of their subject." -Tony Crilly, The Mathematical Gazette , March 2002
