"One of the leading mathematicians of his age, Klein made many stimulating and fruitful contributions to almost all branches of mathematics, including applied mathematics and mathematical physics. Moreover, his extensive activity contributed greatly to making Göttingen the chief center of the exact sciences in Germany. An opponent of one sided approaches, he possessed an extraordinary ability to discover quickly relationships between different areas of research and to exploit them fruitfully." (DSB).
