Book Description
Walter Rudin's memoirs should prove to be a delightful read specifically to mathematicians, but also to historians who are interested in learning abou his colourful history and ancestry. Characterized by his personal style of elegance, clarity, and brevity, Rudin presents in the first part of the book his early memories about his family history, his boyhood in Vienna throughout the 1920s and 1930s, and his experiences during World War II. Part II offers samples of his work, in which he relates where problems came from, what their solutions led to, and who else was involved. As those who are familiar with Rudin's writing will recognize, he brings to this book the same care, depth, and originality that is the hallmark of his work. Co-published with the London Mathematical Society

Book Description
Edgar L. Helmey was born and raised on a working farm outside of Savannah, Georgia, where, as a young boy, his mother and father began building his character around the principles of hard work, family and service. These principles enabled him to enjoy a fulfilling life, on a journey from growing up on the farm during the Great Depression through pursuit of his American dream to become a pilot, raise a family, and experience a long and healthy life with those he loves. Many of us wonder how families and individuals got along "back then" without the modern conveniences, technology and attitudes that exist today. On his journey of over nine decades, Ed has seen and experienced the many periods of rapid change the United States and our world has undergone along the way. What began as a journal of a few memories to leave for his family, blossomed into a rich story of his life centered around the sharing of many observations, stories, and experiences along the way. Planned as a multi-part series, Life As I Remember It, Part I: 1928-1956 depicts his first 28 years with fascinating insights into living on a farm, going to college in the mid-1940s, joining the Air Force and earning his pilot wings. His easy to read style, with many pictures along the way will provide enjoyment for anyone interested in getting a good taste of what life was like for many during these years.

Book Description
A lively illustrated guide “filled with clever tips and tricks for remembering like a memory champion” (Joshua Foer, New York Times–bestselling author of Moonwalking with Einstein).

In Remember It!, Dellis teaches us how to make the most of our memory, using his competition-winning techniques. Presenting the information in a user-friendly way, Dellis offers bite-size chapters, addressing things we wish we could remember but often forget: names, grocery lists, phone numbers, where you left your keys—you name it! This fast-paced, highly illustrated tour of the inner workings of the brain makes improving your memory simple and fun.

Book Description
This is a story of my life as I remember it, beginning in the Summer Lake Valley in the year of 1916. Most families in the early 1900’s didn’t have much and didn’t expect much. Even after my folks were able to buy the farm in Summer Lake Valley it was “nip and tuck”, you might say, to survive and to keep up the payments. Even after I got married in 1944 our life wasn’t easy. Wages were low, even after World War II. I could have gone to college under the G.I. bill since I had been in the Navy, but I was more interested in buying a farm and raising cattle and sheep. Most ranchers were having to go see the banker every year to borrow operating money so farms were not really a very good investment. Still, I think that when we were able to buy our little ten-acre farm it became the highlight of our family’s life. I enjoyed the fishing and deer hunting in Lake County, and took good advantage of it while we were there. That was all fun at the time, but now that the retirement years are here it has to be okay. I will always remember the days on the little farm and raising a family as being my best days.
