5.0 out of 5 stars A real delight for all maths and history lovers, 4 Jan 2001

By A Customer

"A History of Mathematics" gives a profound review of the mathematical revolution strongly interwoven within human history. Each chapter contains a well organized overview of the mathematical developments with anecdotal episodes about the heroes. Although mathmatical knowledge is required to fully bask in this book, non-mathemticians could enjoy it very much.
