Talk:Ivor Grattan-Guinness

On his work, other than historical?
I'd be interested in knowing more about his mathematical research:

"As a distinguished mathematician, he has supervised a number of Ph.D and M.Phil theses and has been closely involved in a number of doctorals written at the Universities of Toronto, Harvard, Texas at Austin, and the Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel."

I'd also like to know more about this:

"He is proficient in a number of languages and is also actively involved in the field of Psychical Research."

Deceased?
I saw a message today from one of his co-authors indicating that the subject had died:. I couldn't find any reliable sources for this yet, though, so I haven't added it to the article. —David Eppstein (talk) 05:51, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

students
According to the math genealogy project he has several students. Should these be included in the infobox? Tkuvho (talk) 15:50, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
