This review is from: A History of Japanese Mathematics (Dover Books on Mathematics) (Paperback)
This is a reprint of barely remembered book printed in 1913. It was probably the first to explain to Westerners the history of maths in Japan. Somewhat abbreviated perhaps. You can see how algebra and geometry developed in Japan. With speculation on how calculus from Europe might have influenced 17th century maths manuscripts. While later years brought advances in infinite series and sums.
The book may cause some readers to wonder if there have been other, more comprehensive discussions of Japanese maths. |
