Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prime Obsession taught us not to be afraid to put the math in a math book. Unknown Quantity heeds the lesson well. So grab your graphing calculators, slip out the slide rules, and buckle up! John Derbyshire is introducing us to algebra through the ages-and it promises to be just what his die-hard fans have been waiting for. "Here is the story of algebra." With this deceptively simple introduction, we begin our journey. Flanked by formulae, shadowed by roots and radicals, escorted by an expert who navigates unerringly on our behalf, we are guaranteed safe passage through even the most treacherous mathematical terrain. Our first encounter with algebraic arithmetic takes us back 38 centuries to the time of Abraham and Isaac, Jacob and Joseph, Ur and Haran, Sodom and Gomorrah. Moving deftly from Abel's proof to the higher levels of abstraction developed by Galois, we are eventually introduced to what algebraists have been focusing on during the last century. As we travel through the ages, it becomes apparent that the invention of algebra was more than the start of a specific discipline of mathematics-it was also the birth of a new way of thinking that clarified both basic numeric concepts as well as our perception of the world around us. Algebraists broke new ground when they discarded the simple search for solutions to equations and concentrated instead on abstract groups. This dramatic shift in thinking revolutionized mathematics. Written for those among us who are unencumbered by a fear of formulae, Unknown Quantity delivers on its promise to present a history of algebra. Astonishing in its bold presentation of the math and graced with narrative authority, our journey through the world of algebra is at once intellectually satisfying and pleasantly challenging.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New Historical and Descriptive View of Derbyshire: From the Remotest Period to the Present Time Jeeienv of moniuou'rii, ' a Writer of the twelfth century, says, that Great Britain was originally peopled by a party of Trojans; who headed by bnute, a greatsgrarrdson of enea's, the hem of virgil, escaped from Greece, when! They had been held in captivity, since their ex: pulsion from Italy. But flattering as this new count may be to that pride of ancestry, which is so natural to the Camera Briton and sup' ported as it is, by many mes of learning of the the last and preceding centuries; it must be pronounced fabuloas and romantic, by every one who has paid any attention 'to the Gm and Latin authors; and cannot for a moment he sufi'ered to rank among tree histories.
