Mathematics / From the Birth of Numbers. Technical Illustrations / Par Gullberg

Gullberg, Jan

New York: W.W. Norton & Company, 1997. Hardcover. xxiii, 1093p., the usual math-as-text format except that there's more of it, and there are some cartooned illustrations. A fine as-new copy: 7.5x10.5 inch dark grey cloth boards gilt, enclosed in the unmolested dust-jacket. For emphasis, saying the same thing in different words: perfectly sound, clean, and free of any markings whatsoever. The American polymath Martin Gardner opines that Gullberg's "book will be a standard reference for many decades"
