About The Book

Srinivasa Ramanujan, hailed as the greatest mathematician of the East, is considered to be 'a natural genius in the class of Gauss or Euler'. He lived a very short span of life, but his work of about two decades will keep mathematicians busy for centuries. He rose from utter obscurity to pinnacle of success by dint of his genius and hard work. He is pride and inspiration to Indians. His birthday, twenty second December, has been celebrated in India as 'National Mathematical Day' since 2012.

This book is a compilation of Ramanujan's brief biography, short account of persons related to him, glimpses into his elementary work, impact of his work, well collected quotations depicting his various attributes, his legacy and some other information. It is hoped that the book adds to the knowledge about Ramanujan and enrich the readers, especially students.

Preface

"The strange genius' Srinivasa Ramanujan was a man of incomparable intellect, unbelievable merit, unparallel insight with a simple heart'. His desire to attain life's fulfillment, that is, 'identification with Supreme Being through mathematics', went undisturbed by any environmental factor - physical, social, economical or personal. He lived a very short span of life, precisely of 32 years 4 months 4 days, but his mathematical works of about two decades have not only dazzled East and West alike, but will keep mathematicians busy for two centuries'. 'His works have been plumbed for their secret' and many of his ideas are used to-day even beyond the area of mathematics. His works which contain some of the most beautiful ideas in the history of mathematics are being applied in different areas of mathematics, in particular and science, in general.
