From the Back Cover:
Greek philosopher, astronomer, and mathematician ARCHIMEDES (circa 287 BC-circa 212 BC) is considered by many the greatest mathematician--and possibly the greatest scientist--of all time. He has made priceless contributions to the fields of maths, physics, and engineering, including the discovery of the principle of density and buoyancy.
Review:
Here are collected his primary writings, first published in English in 1897, on fundamentals and problems in geometry, propositions, and proofs, and the translator's thorough exposition of Archimedes' methods.
Through clear and concise expositions of complex questions in mathematics, these are essential--and accessible--treatments in mathematics, physics, logic, and even science in general.
"This volume, and the overall project it launches, is a most welcome addition to the scholarship on Hellenistic mathematics and the mathematical sciences." Nathan Sidoli, University of Toronto
..."this work is an important, interesting, and very welcome contribution to the field of ancient mathematics." Bryn Mawr Classical Review
