Famous Problems of Mathematics: Solved and Unsolved Mathematical Problems from Antiquity to Modern Times - Hardcover
Dust jacket notes: "Professor Tietze's book is based on a series of lectures given to students of all faculties at the University of Munich. It is addressed to a wide audience and should be of interest to all who want to learn more about the development of mathematics from classical antiquity to modern times in the best way possible, through a discussion of some of the difficult problems which have challenged the minds of the greatest mathematicians and have led to the development of new fields of mathematics. The book consists of fourteen chapters and a Postscript, each followed by Notes which amplify and extend the material in the text. It contains many references to the literature (supplemented in this edition by an extensive bibliography of readily available works in English and a list of expository papers from the American Mathematical Monthly) for those who want to go more deeply into the topics discussed. In addition, the book contains more than 150 line cuts and 18 color plates and halftones which clarify the discussion."
