Review:
'This biography of Alexander Friedmann was originally published in 1988. This is the first detailed biography of a scientist who made enormous contributions to the fields of hydrodynamics, meteorology and relativistic cosmology.' Short Book Reviews
'... this is an interesting work, of value to anyone interested in the history of cosmology.' George F. R. Ellis, Physics World
'This biography makes quite fascinating, if idiosyncratic, reading and can be strongly recommended ... it is an important contribution to the literature.' Malcolm S. Longair, The Observatory
