From the reviews:
"Having read and enjoyed Goulding's book, I realize how much I did not know about the histories of mathematics that were written and argued over in the sixteenth century. ... I recommend this book as an enduring and intriguing contribution to scholarship. Defending Hypatia is an accomplished piece of scholarship which establishes significant conclusions about Renaissance histories of mathematics and, arguably, about the nature of history itself." (Stephen Pumfrey, British Journal for the History of Science, June, 2012)
"Defending Hypatia is a valuable study contributing to our understanding of Renaissance historiography of mathematics ... . Defending Hypatia is well researched and pleasingly written work. It broadens our understanding of Renaissance historiography of mathematics." (Albrecht Heeffer, Aestimatio, Vol. 9, 2012)
