Archimedes
Princeton, New Jersey, Princeton University Press, 1987. Reprint Edition. Softcover. Size: 8vo 8" - 9" tall. Sturdy softcover copy of a reprint of the First Edition, with unfurled tips, tight binding, and clean internals but for a previous owner's ink-stamp inside front flap and another along bottom edges, else unmarked and bright of interior, showing only very slight shelf- and edge-wear to the glossy card-stock covers; sunned at spine from green to blue. With a new bibliographic essay by Wilbur R. Knorr. Translated by C. Dikshoorn. Reviewers praised this "brilliant analytic summary," "An edition and study of Archimedes' known works in which theorems are translated literally while a special notation, avoiding some of the implications of algebraic symbolism, is used to present paraphrases of the proofs." Volume contains scholarly apparatus in the form of, e.g., notes, index, and bibliography. [6], 7-457 pp.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. . . . Very Good
