About the book

Based on new research on Eric Temple Bell, who also wrote science fiction under pseudonym. Includes portraits of other mathmatician, collegues & friends.

First sentence: Half a century after the publication of Eric Temple Bell's Men of Mathematics, I find myself driving down to Watsonville, California, a little town on the coastal plain of Monterey Bay, to meet the only son of its author.
