Part of the reason is that there has not until now been a full-scale study of his life and works. This must surely be surprising, when one realizes the length of his academic career (over 50 years) and the extent of his publica- tions (over 200) in a wide variety of fields, many of which had immediate and long-term effects on the development of modern mathematics. A study of his life seems long overdue. It appeared to me that the most likely person to write a biography of Peano would be his devoted disciple Ugo Cassina, with whom I studied at the University of Milan in 1957-58. I wrote to Professor Cassina on 29 October, 1963, inquiring if he planned to write the biography, and I offered him my assistance, since I hoped to return to Italy for a year. He replied on 28 November, 1963, suggesting that we collaborate, meaning by this thatI would write the biography, in English, using his material and advice. I gladly agreed to this suggestion, but work on the project had hardly begun when Professor Cassina died unexpectedly on 5 Octob | 出版日期 | Book 1980 | 關(guān)鍵詞 | DEX; Gottlob Frege; Natural; Project; Volterra; development; form; knowledge; mathematics; university | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-009-8984-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-90-277-1068-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-009-8984-9 | copyright | D.
