Synopsis:

This volume contains research and expository papers by African-American mathematicians on issues related to their involvement in the mathematical sciences. Little is known, taught, or written about African-American mathematicians. Information is lacking on their past and present contributions and on the qualitative and quantitative nature of their existence in and distribution throughout mathematics. This lack of information leads to a number of questions that have to date remained unanswered. This volume provides details and pointers to help answer some of these questions. This title features: research articles by distinguished African-American mathematicians; accomplishments of African-American researchers in the mathematical sciences; and, articles that explore issues important to the African-American community and to the mathematics community as a whole. This book is an inspiration for African-American students who wish to pursue advancement in the mathematical sciences.
