Leonhard Euler 2007th Edition by Emil A. Fellmann (PDF)

Description

Euler was not only by far the most productive mathematician in the history of mankind, but also one of the greatest scholars of all time. He attained, like only a few scholars, a degree of popularity and fame which may well be compared with that of Galilei, Newton, or Einstein.Moreover he was a cosmopolitan in the truest sense of the word; he lived during his first twenty years in Basel, was active altogether for more than thirty years in Petersburg and for a quarter of a century in Berlin.Leonhard Euler’s unusually rich life and broadly diversified activity in the immediate vicinity of important personalities which have made history, may well justify an exposition.This book is based in part on unpublished sources and comes right out of the current research on Euler. It is entirely free of formulae as it has been written for a broad audience with interests in the history of culture and science.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This is a very succinct book. The author provided many details from Euler’s life based on reliable sources. The work shows the relations of L.E. with the greatest of his era, both in a scientific sense and political. A handy reference book. The only drawback for me is that it was written in German, so I need a translator (Google translator is doing a good job) to read certain passages. A clinical example of how to write a good book (with a collection of interesting figures, pictures, etc.) using only 150 pages of a small format. Already a classic.

⭐The translators for this biography of Leonhard Euler (originally published in German) are clearly not 100% fluent in English – but that did not stop me from learning a great deal more about Euler’s life than I had known previously. This book includes numerous illustrations of Euler book covers, diagrams from his works, portraits of important persons who lived during Euler’s lifetime, etc. There is very little actual math in this book, if that’s what you’re looking for. However, it does give a good account of all of Euler’s major mathematical and scientific contributions. This biography was a very enjoyable and quick read.

⭐This book is an excellent presentation of the story of Euler’s life. It includes some bits of humor (like seeing the streets in Basel named respectively Leonhardstrasse and Eulerstrasse as jointly honoring the man although neither street is actually named for the great mathematician). Unlike “Euler the Master of us All,” the book is organized around the chronology of his life rather than the concepts he studied, and it includes new details of his life. It also has some wonderful illustrations.
