Modern Mathematics: 1900 to 1950 provides an eye-opening introduction to five historic 20th-century decades by analyzing the advancement of the field through the accomplishments of 10 significant mathematicians. From David Hilbert and Emmy Noether, who introduced the infinite dimensional vector spaces and algebraic rings that bear their names, to Norbert Wiener, the founder of ...(展开全部)

In Concepts of Justice D. D. Raphael gives a philosophical survey of the development of the idea of justice. While the framework is historical, the aim is philosophical analysis and criticism. Part I begins with 'Ancient Roots': justice in the Bible, in Aeschylus' Oresteia, in the philosophers Plato and Aristotle, and among jurists and theologians in the Middle Ages. Part II, '...(展开全部)

This is the softcover reprint of the 1975 English translation of the first three chapters of Bourbaki's Groupes et algebres de Lie. The first chapter describes the theory of Lie algebras, their deviations, representations, and enveloping algebras. Chapter two introduces free Lie algebras in order to discuss the exponential, logarithmic and the Hausdorff series. Chapter three de...(展开全部)

Here is the classic, much-read introduction to the craft and history of mathematics by E.T. Bell, a leading figure in mathematics in America for half a century. Men of Mathematics accessibly explains the major mathematics, from the geometry of the Greeks through Newton's calculus and on to the laws of probability, symbolic logic, and the fourth dimension. In addition, the boo...(展开全部)
