LOGICOMIX
by A. Doxiadis, C. Papadimitriou, A. Papadatos, A. Di Donna
http://www.logicomix.com/en/

Covering a span of sixty years, the graphic novel Logicomix was
inspired by the epic story of the quest for the Foundations of
Mathematics.

This was a heroic intellectual adventure most of whose protagonists
paid the price of knowledge with extreme personal suffering and even
insanity. The book tells its tale in an engaging way, at the same time
complex and accessible. It grounds the philosophical struggles on the
undercurrent of personal emotional turmoil, as well as the momentous
historical events and ideological battles which gave rise to them.

The role of narrator is given to the most eloquent and spirited of the
story's protagonists, the great logician, philosopher and pacifist
Bertrand Russell. It is through his eyes that the plights of such
great thinkers as Frege, Hilbert, Poincaré, Wittgenstein and Gödel
come to life, and through his own passionate involvement in the quest
that the various narrative strands come together.

"Mathematics has never been so exciting."
                               - GUARDIAN

"Probably the best and certainly the most extraordinary graphic novel
I have ever come across."
                               - THE SUNDAY TIMES

"Improbable material for comic-book treatment? Not really. The
principals in this intellectual drama are superheroes of a sort...All
of this is presented with real graphic verve...The ideas are conveyed
accurately, and with delightful simplicity."
                               - NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

"Doxiadis and Papadimitriou succeed in bringing out the humanity in
their story...The book is a visual treat as well."
                               - FINANCIAL TIMES

"Logicomix tells its saga of human argumentation with such drama and
vivid colour that it leaves the graphic novel 300 (Frank Miller's take
on the Battle of Thermopylae) looking like something from Eagle
Annual."
                               - INDEPENDENT
