Mathematics at Berkeley: A History

Calvin C. Moore, "Mathematics at Berkeley: A History"
2007 | ISBN-10: 1568813023 | 376 pages | PDF | 2 MB

In this fascinating history of the mathematics department at the University of California, Berkeley, Moore describes how this institution evolved from a single facutly member at a financially-troubled private college into a major research center that is ranked among the very best in the USA and in the world. Moore's account spans from its origins in the 1850s to the establishment and early years of the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (MSRI) in the early to mid 1980s.
