From Kernel to Corn by Robin Nelson

Ernst Zermelo (1871-1953) is regarded as the founder of axiomatic set theory and is best-known for the first formulation of the axiom of choice. However, his papers also include pioneering work in applied mathematics and mathematical physics.

This edition of his collected papers consists of two volumes. The present Volume I covers Ernst Zermelo's work on the calculus of variations, applied mathematics, and physics.


The papers are each presented in their original language together with an English translation, the versions facing each other on opposite pages. Each paper or coherent group of papers is preceded by an introductory note provided by an acknowledged expert in the field who comments on the historical background, motivation, accomplishments, and influence.

Nelson, Robin: - Robin T. Nelson has studied watercolor painting for years and, having recently retired from many years as a research scientist, can now devote more time to art, conservation and protecting our environment. She enjoys painting and studying the physical appearances, personality traits, and habits of the different animals seen in these books. Robin is a scientist at heart, a devoted wife and mother and enjoys using her artistic skills for humanitarian purposes.
