After rave reviews for first issue of "What's Happening", volume 2 was eagerly awaited. 'Very well written', said one reader of volume 1. 'The writing is brilliant, positively brilliant'. 'A terrific publication', said another. 'This is a wonderful tool for showing people what mathematics is about and what mathematicians can do'.

One reader called it 'a must for all mathematics department reading and coffee lounges'.

Volume 2 of "What's Happening" features the same lively writing and all new topics.

Here you can read about a new class of solitons, the contributions wavelets are making to solving scientific problems, how mathematics is improving medical imaging, and Andrew Wiles' acclaimed work on Fermat's Last Theorem."What's Happening" is great for mathematics majors, graduate students, and mathematics clubs - not to mention mathematics faculty, who will enjoy reading about developments in fields other than their own.

Highlighting the excitement and wonder of mathematics, "What's Happening" is in a class by itself.
