Dictionary of Classical and Theoretical Mathematics
The Dictionary of Classical and Theoretical Mathematics, includes more than 1,000 entries from the fields of geometry, logic, number theory, set theory, and topology.
The authors who contributed their work to this volume are professional mathematicians, active in both teaching and research.
The goal in writing this dictionary has been to define each term rigorously, not to author a large and comprehensive survey text in mathematics.

Hawking is quite probably the most admired and recognizable figure in science today. His A Brief History of Time ( LJ 4/15/88) was a surprise best seller that stimulated a public fascination with this man who, although stricken with a debilitating neurological disease, is widely regarded as the most brilliant theoretical physicist since Einstein.
These essays range from the autobiographical to the purely scientific. Building on his earlier work, Stephen Hawking discusses imaginary time, how black holes can give birth to baby universes, and scientists’ efforts to find a complete, unified theory that would predict everything in the universe, a concept he believes will come to seem as natural to the next generation as our current idea that the world is round.
Unfolding the great mysteries of the universe as a backdrop, Stephen Hawking also reflects on free will, the value of life, and his perceptions of death. He looks at how scientific theory converges with - and diverges from - science fiction, as well as how scientific fact interfaces with our own lives.
