It showcases rigorously-reviewed contemporary scholarship on an interesting variety of topics in the history and philosophy of mathematics, as well as the teaching of the history of mathematics. Some of the topics explored include Arabic editions of Euclid’s Elements from the thirteenth century and their role in the assimilation of Euclidean geometry into the Islamic intellectual tradition Portuguese sixteenth century recreational mathematics as found in the Tratado de Prática Darysmetica A Cambridge correspondence course in arithmetic for women in England in the late nineteenth century The mathematical interests of the famous Egyptologist Thomas Eric (T. E.) Peet The history of Zentralblatt für Mathematik and Mathematical Reviews and their role in creating a publishing infrastructure for a global mathematical literature The use of Latin squares for agricultural crop experiments at the Rothamsted Experimental Station The many contributions of women to the advancement of computing techniques at the Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge in the 1960s The volume concludes with two short plays, one set in Ancient Mesopotamia and the other in Ancient Egypt, that are well suited for use in the mathematics classroom. Written by leading scholars in the field, these papers are accessible not only to mathematicians and students of the history and philosophy of mathematics, but also to anyone with a general interest in mathematics.Annals of the Canadian Society for History and Philosophy of Mathematics/ Société canadienne d’histoire et de philosophie des mathématiques,2662-8511MathematicsHistoryScience—HistoryScience—PhilosophyHistory of Mathematical SciencesHistory of SciencePhilosophy of ScienceFilosofia de la matemàticathubHistòria de la matemàticathubLlibres electrònicsthubMathematicsMathematics.History.Science—History.Science—Philosophy.History of Mathematical Sciences.History of Science.Philosophy of Science.Filosofia de la matemàticaHistòria de la matemàtica510.9Zack MariaWaszek DavidMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910726291103321Research in History and Philosophy of Mathematics3386541UNINA
