This volume is dedicated to Paul Erdos, who profoundly influenced mathematics in the twentieth century, with over 1200 papers in number theory, complex analysis, probability theory, geometry, interpretation theory, algebra set theory and combinatorics. One of Erdos' hallmarks was the host of stimulating problems and conjectures, to many of which he attached monetary prices, in accordance with their notoriety. A feature of this volume is a collection of some 50 outstanding unsolved problems, together with their 'value'! Eminent mathematicians from around the world have contributed articles to this volume that reflect the diversity of Erdos' interests, and it will be a fund of insight for number theorists, combinatorialists, set theorists and analysts.

Collected Papers of J.E. Littlewood

All he has to do is not sleep with his ex-wife, stay off the JD, not hit the P.E teacher and avoid the hero worship of one of his more disastrous students. How hard can that be? John Ardle is in search of a slice of time-out where life leaves him alone but he ends up back on his ex-wife's patch, snared by old emotions. Ardle has what his white granny referred to as a-touch-of-the-tarbrush. Maybe that's why he is reluctantly drawn to the angry, vulnerable, mixed-race boy - Alex Simmonds. Alex has a dangerous attitude problem, a hellish home life and a knack for attracting trouble. The stakes increase as Ardle fails to acknowledge approaching catastrophe.

The Companion Contract Lawyer – Robert Avery, who calculates the hours of his misery in six-minute units, loses his dignity, wife and beloved daughter in the mess of an untidy divorce. Jennifer Lewis, having just survived a disastrous childhood stares out at a dismal future. Chance and an inventive hairdresser bring their fates into collision by means of The Companion Contract. This intelligent debut novel delivers a quirky fast paced story, focused on characters who are never quite at the centre of their own lives. Reviews ‘A rewardingly subverted tragic-comic romance, thankfully not based on two unfeasibly attractive people.’ C. T. Bruce ‘Towards the end I was chewing the pages...’ Kate Headworth ‘I believed in it, the lovers’ blandness sparkled.’ S. Woodhouse ‘This darkly humorous, sexy, offbeat novel is worth the paper it’s written on.’ Jo Butler Amanda describes her novel as a ‘dysfunctional romance’. Enjoy the read.
