| Nov 13, 2020 at 18:35 | comment | added | LSpice | Amazon lists Wiener's as from 1964, and my copy of Halmos's is copyright 1985, so I guess the echoing would have to go the other way. | |
| Nov 13, 2020 at 18:23 | comment | added | Alex B. | Thanks, LSpice, corrected. I originally read it as a kid in Russian translation, where there are no articles, so I actually checked the Amazon page before posting. The title there has no article, but on the photo of the cover there is an "a", so this must be a typo on the Amazon page. I don't know whether this echo of Halmos is deliberate. | |

| Nov 13, 2020 at 18:18 | comment | added | LSpice | I think there's an 'a' in the title. Do you know if either this or Halmos's I want to be a mathematician was named in response to the other? | |
