Book excerpt: A new translation of Euclid's 'Elements' together with a comprehensive introduction to each of the 'Elements'' books, all contained in a single volume. Euclid's 'Elements', produced c300 BC, superseded all previous attempts to identify the 'elements' of geometry and became the authoritative work on plane and solid geometry, number theory, proportion, and the irrationals to be relied upon and quoted by later Greek mathematicians. This edition contains a translation of Euclid's 'Elements' and discusses Euclid's methods - the development of axioms (postulates and common notions), the establishment of proofs derived from definitions, axioms and previously made proofs and the use of proof by contradiction. Each of the 'Elements' thirteen books is summarised and discussed in an introductory chapter. There is a fresh look at Euclid's treatment of rationality and commensurability, based as it was on comparisons of straight lines rather than numbers.

Book excerpt: Euclid's Elements is a mathematical and geometric treatise consisting of 13 books attributed to the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid in Alexandria, Ptolemaic Egypt circa 300 BC. It is a collection of definitions, postulates (axioms), propositions (theorems and constructions), and mathematical proofs of the propositions. The books cover Euclidean geometry and the ancient Greek version of elementary number theory. The work also includes an algebraic system that has become known as geometric algebra, which is powerful enough to solve many algebraic problems, including the problem of finding the square root of a number. Elements is the second-oldest extant Greek mathematical treatise after Autolycus' On the Moving Sphere, and it is the oldest extant axiomatic deductive treatment of mathematics. It has proven instrumental in the development of logic and modern science. According to Proclus, the term "element" was used to describe a theorem that is all-pervading and helps furnishing proofs of many other theorems. The word 'element' in the Greek language is the same as 'letter'. This suggests that theorems in the Elements should be seen as standing in the same relation to geometry as letters to language. Later commentators give a slightly different meaning to the term element, emphasizing how the propositions have progressed in small steps, and continued to build on previous propositions in a well-defined order.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This early work by David Hilbert was originally published in the early 20th century and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. David Hilbert was born on the 23rd January 1862, in a Province of Prussia. Hilbert is recognised as one of the most influential and universal mathematicians of the 19th and early 20th centuries. He discovered and developed a broad range of fundamental ideas in many areas, including invariant theory and the axiomatization of geometry. He also formulated the theory of Hilbert spaces, one of the foundations of functional analysis.
