Series Review--"This series introduces students to the great philosophers and mathematicians who helped shaped the intellectual world in modern times. More in depth than many text books for middle school students, the lives and teachings of these men come alive with the aid of colorful maps and illustrations, as well as examples of the kinds of knowledge these men taught to their students..." -Tracy Fitzwater, Librarian, Crescent School District, Joyce, Washington, LMC Jan-07
