Produktinformationen "Al-Kashi's Miftah al-Hisab"
Jamshid al-Kashi’s Mifta? al-?isab (Key to Arithmetic) was largely unknown to researchers until the mid-20th century, and has not been translated to English until now. These three volumes finally bring al-Kashi’s groundbreaking textbook to English audiences in its entirety. As soon as it was studied by modern researchers, Miftah changed some false assumptions about the history of certain topics in mathematics. Written as a textbook for students of mathematics, astronomy, accounting, engineering, and architecture, Miftah covers a wide range of topics in arithmetic, geometry, and algebra. By sharing al-Kashi’s most comprehensive work with a wider audience, this book will help establish a more complete history of mathematics, and extend al-Kashi’s influence into the 21st century and beyond.Researchers and students of the history of mathematics will find this set indispensable in filling in a frequently overlooked time period and region. These volumes will also provide anybody interested in the history of Islamic culture with an insightful look at one of the mathematical world’s most neglected figures.
