Martin Gardner, RIP

The New York Times reports that Martin Gardner died Saturday evening at the age of 95.

Mr. Gardner was the author of numerous prefaces or forewords for Chesterton re-printed editions, as well editor of my favorite edition of Innocence of Father Brown.

A great mind, a popularizer of mathematics, and a wonderful Chestertonian.

  3. Please see a brief note about Gardner, Chesterton and Jaki on my own blog (in Italian).
    Take a look and read a comment from a friend of father Jaki.
