  • A History of Kinematics from Zeno to Einstein

    On the Role of Motion in the Development of Mathematics

    de Teun Koetsier ...
    Series Libro 46 - History of Mechanism and Machine Science
    This book covers the history of kinematics from the Greeks to the 20th century. It shows that the subject has its roots in geometry, mechanics and mechanical engineering and how it became in the 19th century a coherent field of research, for which Ampère coined the name kinematics. The story starts with the important Greek tradition of solving construction problems by means of kinematically ... Leer más

  • Mathematics and the Divine

    A Historical Study

    Edición de Teun Koetsier, Luc Bergmans ...
    Mathematics and the Divine seem to correspond to diametrically opposed tendencies of the human mind. Does the mathematician not seek what is precisely defined, and do the objects intended by the mystic and the theologian not lie beyond definition? Is mathematics not Man's search for a measure, and isn't the Divine that which is immeasurable ?The present book shows that the domains of mathematics ... Leer más

  • The Changing Image of the Sciences

    Edición de Ida H. Stamhuis, Teun Koetsier, Cornelis De Pater, Albert Van Helden ...
    Series series History (R0)
    The title of our book would lead the reader to believe that in speaking ofthe chang ing image of the sciences, we are taking for granted the multiplicity of sciences, as these are practiced, for instance, in modern universities. That was, of course, not always the case. Although we can point to some subjects, for instance mathematical astronomy, as being demarcated to some extent from other ... Leer más

  • The Calculus Story

    A Mathematical Adventure

    de David Acheson ...
    Calculus is the key to much of modern science and engineering. It is the mathematical method for the analysis of things that change, and since in the natural world we are surrounded by change, the development of calculus was a huge breakthrough in the history of mathematics. But it is also something of a mathematical adventure, largely because of the way infinity enters at virtually every twist ... Leer más

    The Story of √-1

    de Paul J. Nahin ...
    Series Libro 1 - Princeton Science Library
    Today complex numbers have such widespread practical use--from electrical engineering to aeronautics--that few people would expect the story behind their derivation to be filled with adventure and enigma. In An Imaginary Tale, Paul Nahin tells the 2000-year-old history of one of mathematics' most elusive numbers, the square root of minus one, also known as i. He recreates the baffling mathematical ...

  • Euler's Pioneering Equation

    The most beautiful theorem in mathematics

    de Robin Wilson ...
    In 1988 The Mathematical Intelligencer, a quarterly mathematics journal, carried out a poll to find the most beautiful theorem in mathematics. Twenty-four theorems were listed and readers were invited to award each a 'score for beauty'. While there were many worthy competitors, the winner was 'Euler's equation'. In 2004 Physics World carried out a similar poll of 'greatest equations', and found ... Leer más

  • The Britannica Guide to Geometry

    de William Hosch ...
    Series series Math Explained
    More than a study of shapes and angles, geometry reflects an amalgamation of discoveries over time. This book not only provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of geometric shapes, axioms, and formulas, it presents the field’s brilliant minds—from Euclid to Wendelin Werner and many in between—whose works reflect a progression of mathematical thought throughout the centuries and have ...
