Have just finished “Perfect Rigor: A Genius and the Mathematical - TopicsExpress



          

Have just finished “Perfect Rigor: A Genius and the Mathematical Breakthrough of the Century” by Masha Gessen. It is a very nice well-written book that sheds light on some aspects on Soviet mathematics and the system of math “circles” that I was not familiar with. Of course, it is somewhat sensationalist, but overall I would definitely recommend it to read. Also, it never stops amaze me how great Courant Institute was and is as a Geometry center.
