{"product_id":"greek-mathematical-thought-and-the-origin-of-algebra-dover-books-on-mathematics","title":"Greek Mathematical Thought and the Origin of Algebra (Dover Books on Mathematics)","description":"Important study focuses on the revival and assimilation of ancient Greek mathematics in the 13th–16th centuries, via Arabic science, and the 16th-century development of symbolic algebra. This brought about the crucial change in the concept of number that made possible modern science — in which the symbolic \"form\" of a mathematical statement is completely inseparable from its \"content\" of physical meaning. Includes a translation of Vieta's Introduction to the Analytical Art. 1968 edition.
