One of the very few books of its type available. <br /><br />And I still remember it was almost 4 years back that I chanced upon Mathematwist in a bookshop and feeling like I had stumbled upon some treasure. I bought all the copies there were - which was 3. Am glad the book is more easily available now.<br />Choxboxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03741540918529448553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-29576173884471868862012-10-25T19:22:24.080-07:002012-10-25T19:22:24.080-07:00Thank you folks for the comments.

He had been told the stories by his father, a historian with several books to his credit - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S._Krishnaswami_Aiyangar<br /><br />A lot of memories associated...Arundhatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18175971860205359849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-1719997624965286252012-10-25T01:02:10.229-07:002012-10-25T01:02:10.229-07:00Chox, I love this book too and it is a favourite g...Chox, I love this book too and it is a favourite gifting option !ranjani.sathishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10450770799790366871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27389926.post-40068022430127982282012-10-24T23:12:49.430-07:002012-10-24T23:12:49.430-07:00Our favourite book to gift :)
