In this, the third printing of Ramanujan's collected papers, Bruce Berndt provides an annotated guide to Ramanujan's work and to the mathematics it inspired over 75 years. The historical development of ideas is traced in the commentary and by citations to the copious references.

The influence of Ramanujan on number theory is renowned in mathematics. His papers, problems and letters have spawned a remarkable number of later results by many different mathematicians. Here, his 37 published papers, most of his first two and last letters to Hardy, the famous 58 problems submitted to the "Journal of the Indian Mathematical Society", and the commentary of the original editors (Hardy, Seshu Aiyar and Wilson) are reprinted, having been unavailable for some time.;In this, the third printing of Ramanujan's collected papers, Bruce Berndt provides an annotated guide to Ramanujan's work and to the mathematics it inspired over 75 years. The historical development of ideas is traced in the commentary and by citations to the copious references.
