Synopsis

The Elements of Euclid is a book written by the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid, which contains a comprehensive collection of mathematical knowledge, particularly in the field of geometry. This particular edition, published in 1874, contains the first six books of Euclid's work, which are considered the foundational texts of modern geometry. The book is primarily based on the text of Dr. Simson, a Scottish mathematician who made significant contributions to the study of Euclid's work. The first six books of The Elements cover topics such as plane geometry, proportions, and the properties of circles and polygons. The book is written in a clear and concise manner, with detailed explanations and diagrams to help readers understand the concepts presented. Overall, The Elements of Euclid is a timeless classic that has been used as a textbook for centuries and continues to be an important reference for mathematicians and students of geometry.With A Selection Of Geometrical Problems For Solution, To Which Is Added The Parts Of The Eleventh And Twelfth Books Which Are Usually Read At The Universities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
