内容説明
The first biography of Oscar Zariski - arguably one of the greatest mathematicians of the 20th century. Based largely on interviews with Zariski, his family, and his colleagues, it includes a summary of some of his pioneering work as well as his personal history which spans nearly 80 years and covers most of the globe. The text is intended for mathematicians and mathematics students, particularly those concerned with algebraic geometry.
