MAA Reviews

MAA Reviews is edited by Fernando Q. Gouvêa, who relies on an immense batallion of faithful reviewers and on the help of the MAA's Basic Library List Committee. And, of course, on you: please visit our page describing the ways you can help MAA Reviews.

Fernando is Carter Professor of Mathematics at Colby College. His main scholarly interests are in number theory and the history of mathematics. He is the author (or co-author) of four (or five, depending on how you count) books, and he was co-editor of a fifth (or sixth). He is also the editor of FOCUS, the news magazine of the MAA.

Fernando has a wide range of interests, and is fond of describing himself as "Christian, orthodox, Brazilian, American, conservative, husband, father, Lutheran, sunday school teacher, science fiction fan, mathematics educator, editor, reluctant (but brazen) photographer, author, bibliophile, wine geek, adoptive Mainer, historian wannabe, and the proud possessor of a graying scraggly beard." He has a serious case of collectoritis. His interests range from mathematics to theology, music, poetry, classical literature, and science fiction. For more information, check out his home page.
