Descrizione

Sehr gutes Exemplar, keine Anstreichungen / Very good copy, no markings. - Table of Contents 1 Foreword by Oystein Ore vii Preface xv The Great Art, or The Rules of Algebra by Girolamo Cardano 1 Appendix Portions of Euclid�s Elements Cited by Cardano 262 First published in 1545 as Artis Magnae Sive de Regulis Algebraicis, the Ars Magna of Girolamo Cardano (1501-1576) was one of the great books of the Renaissance and a cornerstone in the history of mathematics. Among many innovations it contained the principles for solving both cubic and biquadratic equations, giving the roots of expressions formed by radicals, in a manner similar to the method which had been known for equations of the second degree since ancient times. Although Cardano did not claim these innovations as entirely original with him, he was able to build upon them to create his own general theory embracing all possible cases. ISBN 9780486678115
