Understanding Book of Mormon C
ISBN: 9780199731701 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Mark Twain once derided the Book of Mormon as "chloroform in print." Long and complicated, written in the language of the King James version of the Bible, it boggles the minds of many. Yet it is unquestionably one of the most influential books ever written. With over 140 million copies in print, it is a central text of one of the largest and fastest-growing faiths in the world. And, Grant Hardy shows, it's far from the coma-inducing doorstop caricatured by Twain. In Understanding the Book of Mormon, Hardy offers the first comprehensive analysis of the work's narrative structure...

Sima Qian (c. 100 B.C.E.) was China's first historian--he was known as Grand Astrologer at the court of Emperor Wu during the Han dynasty--and, along with Confucius and the First Emperor of Qin, was one of the creators of imperial China.

Turning Points in the History of Mathematics
ISBN: 9781493932634 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 109 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. This book explores some of the major turning points in the history of mathematics, ranging from ancient Greece to the present, demonstrating the drama that has often been a part of its evolution. Studying these breakthroughs, transitions, and revolutions, their stumbling-blocks and their triumphs, can help illuminate the importance of the history of mathematics for its teaching, learning, and appreciation. Some of the turning points considered are the rise of the axiomatic method (most famously in Euclid), and the subsequent major changes in it (for example, by David Hilbert); the...

The Genesis of the Abstract Group Concept: A Contribution to the History of the Origin of Abstract Group Theory
ISBN: 9780486458687 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. This informative survey chronicles the process of abstraction that ultimately led to the axiomatic formulation of the abstract notion of group. Hans Wussing, former Director of the Karl Sudhoff Institute for the History of Medicine and Science at Leipzig University, contradicts the conventional thinking that the roots of the abstract notion of group lie strictly in the theory of algebraic equations. Wussing declares their presence in the geometry and number theory of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.
This survey ranges from the works of Lagrange via Cauchy, Abel, and... This informative survey chronicles the process of abstraction that ultimately led to the axiomatic formulation of the abstract notion of group. Hans W...

In Search of Infinity
ISBN: 9780817638191 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The concept of infinity is one of the most important, and at the same time, one of the most mysterious concepts of science. Already in antiquity many philosophers and mathematicians pondered over its contradictory nature. In mathematics, the contradictions connected with infinity intensified after the creation, at the end of the 19th century, of the theory of infinite sets and the subsequent discovery, soon after, of paradoxes in this theory. At the time, many scientists ignored the paradoxes and used set theory extensively in their work, while others subjected set-theoretic methods in...
