Overview

"This is the most comprehensive survey of the mathematical life of the legendary Paul Erdos, one of the most versatile and prolific mathematicians of our time. For the first time, all the main areas of Erdos' research are covered in a single project. Because of overwhelming response from the mathematical community, the project now occupies over 900 pages, arranged into two volumes. These volumes contain both high level research articles as well as ""key"" articles which survey some of the cornerstones of Erdos' work, each written by a leading world specialist in the field. A special chapter ""Early Days"", rare photographs, and art related to Erdos complement this striking collection. A unique contribution is the bibliography on Erdos' publications: the most comprehensive ever published."
