Thompson and Jacques Tits, 2008 · Mikhail Gromov, 2009 · John T. Tate Jr., 2010 · John W. Milnor, 2011 · Endre Szemerédi, 2012. The profiles feature autobiographical information as well as a description of each mathematician's work. In addition, each profile contains a complete bibliography, a curriculum vitae, as well as photos -- old and new. As an added feature, interviews with the Laureates are presented on an accompanying web site (http://extras.springer.com/). The book also presents a history of the Abel Prize written by the historian Kim Helsvig, and includes a facsimile of a letter from Niels Henrik Abel, which is transcribed, translated into English, and placed into historical perspective by Christian Skau. This book follows on The Abel Prize: 2003-2007, The First Five Years (Springer, 2010), which profiles the work of the first Abel Prize winners. 000697301 650_0 $$aMathematics. 000697301 650_0 $$aComputer science. 000697301 650_0 $$aPhysics. 000697301 7001_ $$aHolden, Helge,$$eeditor. 000697301 7001_ $$aPiene, Ragni,$$eeditor. 000697301 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000697301 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-39449-2$$zOnline Access 000697301 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:697301$$pGLOBAL_SET 000697301 980__ $$aEBOOK 000697301 980__ $$aBIB 000697301 982__ $$aEbook 000697301 983__ $$aOnline 000697301 994__ $$a92$$bISE
