I want to read about famous Indian mathematicians (for example, Ramanujan, Aryabhatta, etc.), their biographies and their research contributions.



Please suggest me books which include brief introductions to their life and work.



To clarify, I am looking for brief introductions to most of the famous Indian mathematicians in one book. I am not interested in books focusing on one mathematician only (I want a reference book so that I can encourage my students to doing Mathematics).

  • The question is now open again. One reason why it might have been closed is that in your original version your intent was less clear and the question could seem rather broad. Now, that the type of book got narrowed down by your comments that where integrated into the post by edits this is no longer the case.
