From the book reviews:
“I highly recommend Hawkins’ book. It is very mathematical all the way through. ... Hawkins’ work is extraordinarily useful. It allows the mathematical community, even the great majority of us who do not read German well, to understand the work of the very important mathematician Frobenius. The great length of the book is essential to the book’s success.” (David P. Roberts, MAA Reviews, October, 2014)
“The author has succeeded admirably in describing the mathematical work of Frobenius. ... this book is an excellent contribution to the mathematical literature ... it is, or should be, a role model for historical writing, and for bringing the mathematics of the recent past back to life.” (Franz Lemmermeyer, zbMATH, Vol. 1281, 2014)
Thomas Hawkins won the 2001 Whiteman Prize, an AMS prize that honors notable exposition in the history of mathematics. The citation for the prize calls Hawkins "an outstanding historian of mathematics whose current research and numerous publications display the highest standards of mathematical and historical sophistication." The citation also mentions a number of Hawkins’ works, including his book, The Emergence of the Theory of Lie Groups: An Essay in the History of Mathematics 1869-1926. "Hawkins’ work has truly transformed our understanding of how modern mathematics has evolved," the citation concludes.
