In addition, the book features carefully designed problems that guide readers to a fuller understanding of the relevant mathematics and its social and historical context. Chapter-end exercises, numerous photographs, and a listing of related websites are also included for readers who wish to pursue a specialized topic in more depth. Additional features of The History of Mathematics, Third Edition include:\* Material arranged in a chronological and cultural context\* Specific parts of the history of mathematics presented as individual lessons\* New and revised exercises ranging between technical, factual, and integrative\* Individual PowerPoint presentations for each chapter and a bank of homework and test questions (in addition to the exercises in the book)\* An emphasis on geography, culture, and mathematicsIn addition to being an ideal coursebook for undergraduate students, the book also serves as a fascinating reference for mathematically inclined individuals who are interested in learning about the history of mathematics. …
