Riassunto

The Elements of Euclid is a mathematical textbook written by the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid. This particular edition, published in 1874, contains the first six books of Euclid's text, which cover topics such as plane geometry, proportion, and number theory. The text is based mainly on the work of Dr. Robert Simson, a Scottish mathematician who made significant contributions to the study of Euclid's work. The book is written in a rigorous, deductive style, with each theorem and proof building on the previous ones. It is considered a foundational work in the history of mathematics and has been used as a textbook for centuries. This edition includes detailed diagrams and explanations to aid in understanding the concepts presented. It is a valuable resource for students and scholars of mathematics, as well as anyone interested in the history of mathematical thought.With A Selection Of Geometrical Problems For Solution, To Which Is Added The Parts Of The Eleventh And Twelfth Books Which Are Usually Read At The Universities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
