Book Description:

In diesem Buch, erstmals 1924 bzw. 1937 erschienen, spürt man noch wie am ersten Tag die Frische und Inspiration zweier großer Mathematiker und Lehrer. Hilbert kann man mit Fug und Recht als den letzten Mathematiker bezeichnen, der in allen Gebieten seiner Wissenschaft zu Hause war und in den verschiedensten Bereichen der Mathematik grundlegende neue Erkenntnisse gewann. Seine Resultate haben entscheidend die moderne Auffassung vom Wesen der Mathematik geprägt. Sein Schüler Courant...

Author Biography
Courant, Richard (Author)
Richard Courant was born in Lublintz, Germany, on January 8, 1888, later becoming an American citizen. He was a mathematician, researcher and teacher, specializing in variational calculus and its applications to physics, computer science, and related fields. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Gottingen, Germany, lectured at Cambridge University and headed the mathematics department at New York University.

Courant's writings include Introduction to Calculus and Analysis (1965), written with John Fritz, Differential and Integral Calculus (1965), Methods of Mathematical Physics: Dirichlet's Principle, Conformal Mapping and Minimal Surfaces (1950), and Supersonic Flow and Shock Waves (1948). He edited a mathematics series and contributed to journals and periodicals.

Courant received the Distinguished Service Award from the Mathematical Association of America in 1965. He earned the Navy Distinguished Public Service Award, the Knight-Commander's cross, and Germany's Star of the Order of Merit in 1958.

Courant died on January 27, 1972.
