About this title

Synopsis

This book delves into the foundational principles of geometry, exploring the renowned work of Euclid and his Elements. The author embarks on a meticulous examination of Euclid's propositions and proofs, carefully considering the contributions and potential alterations made by Theon and other historical figures who shaped the existing Greek text. This exploration extends beyond a mere analysis of geometric principles. It delves into the historical evolution of mathematical thought and the transmission of knowledge through the ages. The author sheds light on the ways in which Euclid's work has been interpreted, modified, and preserved over centuries, offering valuable insights into the development of geometric understanding. By scrutinizing the intricacies of Euclid's propositions, the author invites readers to contemplate the elegance and logical rigor of Euclidean geometry. The book's exploration of historical context and evolving interpretations encourages a deeper appreciation for the enduring legacy of Euclid's Elements and its profound impact on mathematics and scientific thought.

Store Description

Seit �ber 30 Jahren handeln wir mit B�chern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter B�cher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen B�cher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderb�cher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten B�chern oder Haushaltsaufl�sungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbest�nde von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die M�glichkeit, gro�e Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbest�nde werden von uns professionell auf Qualit�tsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgf�ltig f�r den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken B�chern ein zweites Leben.
