               Which are the 23 Hilbert Problems?


                                       
   The original was published in German in a couple of places. A
   translation was published by the AMS in 1902.
   
   This article has been reprinted in 1976 by the American Mathematical
   Society (see references).
   
   The AMS Symposium mentioned at the end contains a series of papers on
   the then-current state of most of the Problems, as well as the
   problems.
