Revue de presse

George Andrews has made fundamental contributions to number theory and combinatorics. In the theory of partitions and on the mathematics of Ramanujan, he is a world authority ... It is appropriate to have a selection of his papers, as this volume does, which reflects both the depth and the breadth of his contributions. This book, superbly edited by Andrew Sills, would be invaluable as a reference book and a source of ideas for researchers in number theory and combinatorics. --Mathematical Reviews
