Bernhard Riemann (1826–1866) possessed an original and broad vision of mathematics together with powerful skill. His work continues to influence almost all major branches of mathematics. The twenty-three papers in this two-volume set examine Riemann, his work, and his significance in the context of modern mathematical developments.
