The Elements of Euclid (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the first six books of Euclid's Elements, a foundational work in mathematics that has shaped Western thought for centuries. Originally written in Greek around 300 BC by the mathematician Euclid of Alexandria, the Elements is a systematic and logical exposition of geometry, arithmetic, and elementary number theory. The author's approach is axiomatic, beginning with a small set of basic definitions and postulates and building upon them to derive complex theorems. The first book of the Elements introduces the basic concepts of Euclidean geometry, including points, lines, angles, triangles, and other polygons. The second book introduces the notion of geometric proof and demonstrates how to use axioms and postulates to derive new theorems. The third and fourth books continue this process, introducing more complex geometric concepts such as circles, spheres, and solids. The fifth and sixth books apply geometric principles to the study of number theory, including the calculation of areas and volumes and the properties of prime numbers. Euclid's Elements has had a profound impact on the development of mathematics. It has been used as a textbook for centuries and has influenced the work of mathematicians from Archimedes to Newton. The Elements is still studied today as a model of logical reasoning and as a source of important mathematical concepts. Its insights into the nature of mathematics and its applications continue to be relevant and illuminating. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332941575_0
