"... Each mathematical institute should own the four videos. Parts of them could be presented to the students from time to time. Also, on open days at universities (parts of) the first two videos might give a good introduction to an active discussion on the value of modern mathematics."

Klaus Dieter Bierstedt, Zentralblatt für Mathematik 994.00002

"... To summarise, this is a challenging set of videos which makes few compromises in addressing issues at the very forefront of contemporary mathematics. ..."

Gerry Leversha, The Mathematical Gazette 2003, Vol. 87, Issue 509

"In May 2000, the Clay Mathematics Institute held its Paris Millennium Event at the College de France. Seven unsolved problems, representative of the state of mathematics at the turn of the century, had been chosen by the CMI as Millennuim Prize Problems. . These videos form a record of this event. . this is a challenging set of videos which makes few compromises in addressing issues at the very forefront of contemporary mathematics. . The complete set . is a unique document . ." (Gerry Leversha, The Mathematical Gazette, Vol. 87 (509), 2003)
