Many of these works had a great influence on mathematics in Western Europe. Topics covered in the first edition include arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and numerical approximation; this second edition adds number theory and combinatorics. Additionally, the author has included selections from the western regions of medieval Islam--both North Africa and Spain. The author puts the works into their historical context and includes numerous examples of how mathematics interacted with Islamic society.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45276303556759,"sku":"9781493937783","price":6610.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781493937783.webp?v=1769285275","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/episodes-in-the-mathematics-of-medieval-islam-9781493937783","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
