Euler at 300

The writing is uniformly high level and should interest both historians of mathematics and indeed any mathematician with a fondness for Euler. Highly Recommended — Choice The essays are well-written and clearly presented; many of them are accessible to a motivated reader while others are set at a more advanced level....These essays provide evidence that one can combine an avid interest in technical science with a substantial interest in history."" — Charles Fraser, Isis
