Review title: Worst biography I have ever read
Product review: This is the worst biography I have ever read. There is no common thread that holds the book together. It seems like different parts have been cut from different sources and pasted here. There are absolutely non-sensical and useless diversions into Hardy and his interest in cricket, Ramanujan and his food habits etc. Cheap tricks to get attention and hide poor research.It is clear that the author has no interest in mathematics and it almost seems like the book was published to cash in on Erdos's death and the media attention the event was getting.Save your money and time.
