Abstract | The aim of this book is to present Euclid's Elements to general mathematical readers, including students. The author summarizes all of its 13 books in order of appearance of item or group of items ( usually propositions, but also definitions and postulates), and in 16 interlaced chapters he relates the material to other developments in mathematics, usually more modern. A good bibliography is furnished (in various formatting conventions), though several items are not cited; the index is very sparse on topics. |
