Review
Bertrand Russell
Professor Bell has done his work well....Any [one] engaged in learning mathematics will profit by reading him, since he humanizes the subject and helps to a realization of the historical environment.
The New York Times
Extremely harmonious...a first text in the philosophy of mathematics....Bell's style is very enjoyable.
Nature
Professor E.T. Bell has written a fascinating book. The amount of biographical details and of mathematics that he has compressed into a volume of 600 pages is extraordinary...he carries the reader along; he whets the appetite.
