5.0 out of 5 stars Lagrange teaching elementary mathematics, January 15, 2009
By 
This review is from: Lectures on Elementary Mathematics (Dover Books on Mathematics) (Paperback)
Joseph Louis Lagrange (1736-1813) is one of the eighteenth century's greatest mathematicians. In spite of Lagrange is most known as a creator of calculus of variations, a branch of superior mathematics, in 1795 he was appointed to a mathematical chair at the newly-established École Normale, where he taught courses on elementary mathematics for training school teachers. Lectures on elementary mathematics is a book that show a great mathematician exploring with originality and elegance topics of elementary mathematics as a fractions, proportions, logarithms, divisibility, equations and others. It is a great book for teachers and lovers of mathematics.
