Publisher's Synopsis
The letters that Ramanujan wrote to G. H. Hardy on January 16 and February 27, 1913, are two of the most famous letters in the history of mathematics. This book brings together many letters to, from, and about Ramanujan, many that have never been published before. This book will appeal to those interested in Ramanujan's mathematics as well as those wanting to learn more about the personal side of his life. The History of Mathematics series is jointly published with the London Mathematical Society.
