توضیحاتی در مورد کتاب نوشته های برجسته در ریاضیات غربی 1640-1940

این کتاب شامل حدود 80 مقاله در مورد نوشته‌های اصلی در ریاضیات است که بین سال‌های 1640 و 1940 منتشر شده است. تمام جنبه‌های ریاضیات را پوشش می‌دهد: محض و کاربردی، احتمال و آمار، مبانی و فلسفه. گاهی دو نوشته از یک دوره و یک موضوع با هم گرفته می شود. بیوگرافی نویسنده (نویسندگان) ثبت شده و شرایط تهیه نوشته ذکر شده است. زمانی که نوشته طولانی باشد، یک جدول تحلیلی از محتویات آن ارائه می شود. محتویات نوشته بررسی می‌شود و تأثیر آن حداقل برای دهه‌های نزدیک شرح داده می‌شود. هر مقاله با فهرستی از موارد اولیه و فرعی به پایان می رسد. اولین کتاب در نوع خود دوره 1640-1940 پیشرفت عظیم در ریاضیات را پوشش می دهد. بسیاری از نوشته های اصلی ریاضیات را توصیف می کند.


توضیحاتی درمورد کتاب به خارجی

This book contains around 80 articles on major writings in mathematics published between 1640 and 1940. All aspects of mathematics are covered: pure and applied, probability and statistics, foundations and philosophy. Sometimes two writings from the same period and the same subject are taken together. The biography of the author(s) is recorded, and the circumstances of the preparation of the writing are given. When the writing is of some lengths an analytical table of its contents is supplied. The contents of the writing is reviewed, and its impact described, at least for the immediate decades. Each article ends with a bibliography of primary and secondary items. · First book of its kind · Covers the period 1640-1940 of massive development in mathematics · Describes many of the main writings of mathematics · Articles written by specialists in their field
