Remembering Archimedes for more than his naked stroll
Recommended for all mathematicians and scientists In addition to providing the scientific community with a detailedaccount of Archimedes' main mathematical discoveries and an insight intothe ancient master's thinking, this book, I believe, can be useful in theclassroom in a variety of ways.The most obvious use, of course, would bein designating it as a textbook or a reference in courses on the history ofcalculus or, more generally, on the history of mathematics.But it wouldalso make an excellent textbook for a course on axiomatic mathematics: thebook starts with a few axioms from which Archimedes had developed thetheory of center of gravity and used it throughout a good part of thematerial covered in the book, includingthe development of the volumes ofa paraboloid and a sphere and the theory of floating bodies. In sum, thisis an excellent book that should be within reach of any person interestedin mathematics or science. ... Read more |
