Riassunto

""Non-Euclidean Geometry: A Critical and Historical Study of Its Development"" is a book written by Roberto Bonola and published in 1912. The book provides a comprehensive overview of non-Euclidean geometry, which is a branch of mathematics that explores geometries that differ from the traditional Euclidean geometry. The book begins with a historical overview of the development of non-Euclidean geometry, tracing its origins back to the work of mathematicians such as Gauss, Lobachevsky, and Bolyai. Bonola then delves into the different types of non-Euclidean geometries, including hyperbolic and elliptic geometries, and explores their properties and applications. The book also discusses the philosophical implications of non-Euclidean geometry, particularly its challenge to the traditional notions of space and geometry. Bonola examines the debates that arose in the mathematical community over the validity and significance of non-Euclidean geometry, and provides his own critical analysis of the subject. Overall, ""Non-Euclidean Geometry: A Critical and Historical Study of Its Development"" is a seminal work in the field of mathematics, providing a thorough exploration of a complex and important topic. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and development of mathematics, as well as those interested in the philosophical implications of mathematical concepts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
