Son œuvre reflète leurs esprits indomptables et leurs âmes indéfectibles. Bien que ses expériences l'aient emmené au loin, son écriture reste ancrée dans cette profonde connexion.

    • In addition to coverage of univariate interpolation and approximation, the text includes material on multivariate interpolation and multivariate numerical integration, a generalization of the Bernstein polynomials that has not previously appeared in book form, and a greater coverage of Peano kernel theory than is found in most textbooks. There are many worked examples and each section ends with a number of carefully selected problems that extend the student's understanding of the text. The author is well known for his clarity of writing and his many contributions as a researcher in approximation theory.

      George Hill was just sixteen when he enlisted into the army. After only a few weeks in France, he was in the midst of St Quentin and the full horrors of trench warfare. After several months at the front, he was gassed and spent the last days of the war in a field hospital. This book is the harrowing story based on his experiences.

    • Alderley Park Discovered is written by former AstraZeneca chemist George Hill, whose carefully researched text is presented in a wonderfully lively and readable style. The 400-acre site is a unique and beautiful natural environment with a rich, varied history, and is home to a diverse range of wildlife.

      Alderley Park Discovered
    • This book is an interesting collection of interconnected topics in areas of mathematics, ranging over two millennia from the work of Archimedes, who died in the year 212 BC, to the "Werke" of Gauss, who was born in 1777. The book is intended for those who love mathematics, including undergraduate students of mathematics, more advanced students, and the vast unseen host of amateur mathematicians. It will also be a useful source of material for those who teach mathematics.
