He would have been startled to see the two volumes, first published in 1880 and 1886 respectively, reissued more than a century later. Notably, in 1903 the work fell into the hands of the Indian prodigy Srinivasa Ramanujan (1887–1920) and greatly influenced his mathematical education. It is the interaction between a methodical teaching aid and the soaring spirit of a self-taught genius which gives this reissue its interest. Volume 1, presented here in its 1886 printing, contains sections on mathematical tables, algebra, the theory of equations, plane trigonometry, spherical trigonometry, elementary geometry and geometrical conics.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 244mmItem Length: 170mmItem Width: 16mmItem Weight: 480gAuthor: George Shoobridge CarrGenre: Science Nature & MathBook Series: Cambridge Library Collection - MathematicsRelease Year: 2013 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
