Classical Mathematics from Al-Khwarizmi to Descartes
Author: Roshdi Rashed
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317622391
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 768
Book Description
This book follows the development of classical mathematics and the relation between work done in the Arab and Islamic worlds and that undertaken by the likes of Descartes and Fermat. ‘Early modern,’ mathematics is a term widely used to refer to the mathematics which developed in the West during the sixteenth and seventeenth century. For many historians and philosophers this is the watershed which marks a radical departure from ‘classical mathematics,’ to more modern mathematics; heralding the arrival of algebra, geometrical algebra, and the mathematics of the continuous. In this book, Roshdi Rashed demonstrates that ‘early modern,’ mathematics is actually far more composite than previously assumed, with each branch having different traceable origins which span the millennium. Going back to the beginning of these parts, the aim of this book is to identify the concepts and practices of key figures in their development, thereby presenting a fuller reality of these mathematics. This book will be of interest to students and scholars specialising in Islamic science and mathematics, as well as to those with an interest in the more general history of science and mathematics and the transmission of ideas and culture.

Publisher: The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc
ISBN: 1508171378
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
One of the elite scholars in Baghdad’s prestigious House of Wisdom, al-Khwarizmi is best remembered for his famous work Al-Jabr wa al-Muqabala, the text that defined the branch of mathematics known as algebra. He was also an accomplished astronomer and geographer. This fascinating biography describes in vivid detail the Islamic world’s Golden Age, a period during the Middle Ages when learning and scientific advancement were revered and honored. Readers will learn what is known of al-Khwarizmi’s life, as well as the pertinent history of both the Arab world and the fields of science in which al-Khwarzimi excelled.

The Development of Arabic Mathematics: Between Arithmetic and Algebra
Author: R. Rashed
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401732744
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
An understanding of developments in Arabic mathematics between the IXth and XVth century is vital to a full appreciation of the history of classical mathematics. This book draws together more than ten studies to highlight one of the major developments in Arabic mathematical thinking, provoked by the double fecondation between arithmetic and the algebra of al-Khwarizmi, which led to the foundation of diverse chapters of mathematics: polynomial algebra, combinatorial analysis, algebraic geometry, algebraic theory of numbers, diophantine analysis and numerical calculus. Thanks to epistemological analysis, and the discovery of hitherto unknown material, the author has brought these chapters into the light, proposes another periodization for classical mathematics, and questions current ideology in writing its history. Since the publication of the French version of these studies and of this book, its main results have been admitted by historians of Arabic mathematics, and integrated into their recent publications. This book is already a vital reference for anyone seeking to understand history of Arabic mathematics, and its contribution to Latin as well as to later mathematics. The English translation will be of particular value to historians and philosophers of mathematics and of science.

Khwarizmi Father of Algebra Inventor of Algorithm
Author: Ali Keyhani
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781979844918
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 26
Book Description
Al-Khwarizmi developed the Arabic numerals, based on the Hindu-Arabic numeral system and Indian mathematics. The Western world adopted his numeral system. The term "algorithm" is the invention of Khwarizmi. Algorithm defines the steps for calculation for the solution of a problem. Khwarizmi moved the world from the Greek geometry and created the new mathematics based on Algebra. His Algorithm is used to solve the second order equation. His invention of Algebra and Algorithm paved the way for the age of Enlightenment. Khwarizmi was a philosopher and mathematician. His Persian quest for knowledge, love of truth, and mathematics led him to leave his mark on the humanity.
