Italian mathematician ROBERTO BONOLA (1874 1911) begins by surveying efforts by Greek, Arab, and Renaissance mathematicians to close the gap in Euclid s axiom. Then, starting with the 17th century, as mathematicians began to question whether it was actually possible to prove Euclid s postulate, he examines non-Euclidean predecessors Saccheri, Lambert, Legendre, W. Bolyai, Wachter, and Thibaut, and non-Euclidean  founders  Gauss, Schweikart, Taurinus, Lobachevski, and J. Bolyai. He concludes with a look at later developments in non-Euclidean geometry. Including five appendices and an index of authors, Bonola s Non-Euclidean Geometry is a useful reference guide for students of mathematical history.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cosimo Classics","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46890758701207,"sku":"9781602064652","price":1551.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781602064652.webp?v=1770270647","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/non-euclidean-geometry-9781602064652","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
