Synopsis
This book is an in-depth examination of the geometric shapes known as conic sections and considers the historical development of this concept from the foundational theorems of Greek geometry through to Descartes' application of algebra. By focusing on the conic sections, Apollonius's work defined the mathematical study of curves and surfaces in space and had a profound impact on later developments of integral calculus by Newton and Leibnitz. The author guides the reader through the key ideas put forward by Apollonius, exploring their implications for the future of mathematics, highlighting their significance in areas like astronomy and engineering.
