Abstract

The Handbook of Mathematics Functions is an unusual artifact, for it serves as both an example of a large, collaborative research project and one of the very few scientific activities of the 1950s led by women. The book's popularity is proved by the fact that it continues to receive roughly 1,500 citations a year in the Science Citation Index even forty years after its publication.
