Отто Нойгебауэр

нашел страничку об этом одном из моих любимейших ученых:
http://www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Neugebauer.html

и вот, между прочим, тут интересно:

Neugebauer continued as editor of Mathematical Reviews until 1945 when a full-time executive editor was appointed. Neugebauer policy regarding reviews was an interesting one. He [1]:-

... always insisted that the length of the review was not intended to be directly proportional to the importance of the paper; indeed, a bad paper needed to have a review sufficiently detailed so that nobody needed to look at the paper itself, whereas a really important paper needed only to be called to the world's attention.

Нойгебауэр -- стал еще и очень крутым эфиопистом. мне приходится обсасывать до мелочей его работы по эфиопским календарям и календарным текстам.
