Publisher's Summary

In Pushing Limits: Memoir of a Maverick from Soldier to Scholar, Ted Hill challenges the myth that mathematicians lead dull and ascetic lives. It recounts his unique odyssey from Army officer to globetrotting research mathematician. This is the tale of an academic career as noteworthy for its offbeat adventures and questioning of authority as for its teaching and research accomplishments. Hill’s book is packed with energy, humor, and suspense, both physical and intellectual. Anyone who is curious about how a maverick mathematician thinks, who wants to relive the zanier side of the ’60s and ’70s, or who wants an armchair journey into the third world will be drawn to this book.
