Inhaltsangabe

Lectures On The Icosahedron And The Solution Of Equations Of The Fifth Degree is a mathematical book written by Felix Klein. The book is divided into two parts. The first part of the book discusses the properties of the icosahedron, which is a three-dimensional geometric shape with 20 equilateral triangles as its faces. Klein explores the symmetry and geometry of the icosahedron and its relationship to other shapes in mathematics.The second part of the book focuses on the solution of equations of the fifth degree. This is a problem that had puzzled mathematicians for centuries, and Klein presents a comprehensive and detailed account of the various attempts to solve this problem. He also provides his own solution to the problem, which involves the use of the icosahedron.Overall, Lectures On The Icosahedron And The Solution Of Equations Of The Fifth Degree is a seminal work in the field of mathematics. It is a must-read for anyone interested in geometry, algebra, or the history of mathematics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
