Book Synopsis Distributivity-like Results in the Medieval Traditions of Euclid's Elements by : Leo Corry
Book excerpt: This book provides a fresh view on an important and largely overlooked aspect of the Euclidean traditions in the medieval mathematical texts, particularly concerning the interrelations between geometry and arithmetic, and the rise of algebraic modes of thought. It appeals to anyone interested in the history of mathematics in general and in history of medieval and early modern science.
