The Genius Plays A Review of Genius at Play
Timothy Sibbald
Siobhan Roberts continues to impress with this book, her second biography of a mathematician. She has clearly put in a lot of legwork and had remarkable access to her subject in her exploration of John Conway. This is an impressive book that details Conway’s remarkable career in a fascinating ride through decades of recent math events.
