Richly illustrated and thoroughly documented, it recounts the many achievements of Polish mathematicians― including the world-renowned interwar Polish School of Mathematics―alongside the great tragedies, notably the losses caused by the Second World War, as well as the arduous post-war revival. A book for anyone interested in Polish culture and its achievements.”,”bookEdition”:”1st”,”url”:”https://www.amazon.com/dp/3631877641/”,”bookFormat”:”http://schema.org/EBook”,”additionalType”:”http://schema.org/PDF”,”fileSize”:”41 MB”,”accessibilityFeature”:[“login required”,”member access only”],”accessibilitySummary”:”PDF version available to authenticated members only.
