Perfect Rigor: A Genius and the Mathematical Breakthrough of the Century
by Masha Gessen
read in June, 2010
|
My rating:
|
| This biography suffers greatly from a lack of first-person interviews, and the subject does not reveal much about his motivation or ideas through his writing and meagre friendships. | |

Disorganized and somewhat rambling, full of interesting data and anecdotes but not written coherently.
A year later, re-starting this book. |
