The cast of characters includes Albert Einstein, Norbert Wiener, Julian Lowell Coolidge, Maurice Fre?chet, Nathan Altschiller-Court, G. H. Hardy, and many other interesting figures whom he encountered in a long and active life in mathematics. In Mathematical Reminiscences we read of Eves' famous mathematical museum, with its lock of Einstein's hair, Hardy's scarf, Veblen's bright yellow lead pencil, Wiener's hat, and much, much more. 410 0$aMAA spectrum. 606 $aMathematics$vAnecdotes 615 0$aMathematics 676 $a510 700 $aEves$b Howard$f1911-2004,$046127 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823191103321 996 $aMathematical reminiscences$94017635 997 $aUNINA
