Quantum mechanics is arguably the most successful physical theory. It provides the structure underlying all of our electronic technology, and much of our mastery over materials. Suitable for undergraduates with minimal mathematical preparation, this title

In this title, Hawkins places Lebesgue's early work on integration theory within its proper historical context by relating it to the developments during the 19th century that motivated it and gave it significance and also to the contributions made in this field by Lebesgue's contemporaries. Hawkins was awarded the 1997 MAA Chauvenet Prize and the 2001 AMS Albert Leon Whiteman Memorial Prize for notable exposition and exceptional scholarship in the history of mathematics.
