A Brief History of Mathematics for Curious Minds
Authors: Krzysztof R Apt


Description:
This book offers a short and accessible account of the history of mathematics, written for the intelligent layman to gain a better appreciation of its beauty, relevance, and place in history. It traces the development of the subject throughout the centuries, starting with the so-called Lebombo bone, the oldest known mathematical object that was estimated to be at least 43,000 years old, and ending with the 21st century.

The presentation is informal, and no prior knowledge of mathematics is needed to enjoy the systematic chronological insights. A collection of appendices is included for more technical material — though still at the level of secondary school mathematics — and is concerned with the historically important proofs and concepts that can be explained in a simple way.


Non-specialist readers interested in general literature about mathematics at an informal level. The book could also be used for an undergraduate course on history of mathematics at mathematics, computer science, physics and/or engineering studies. It should be also of interest to graduate students of engineering studies and first-year students of mathematics, as well as undergraduate or graduate students of technical studies.
