Description

This fifth volume of A History of Arabic Sciences and Mathematics completes a comprehensive series exploring classical mathematical achievements including infinitesimal geometry, conic theory, spherical geometry, and mathematical astronomy. The book examines seven major works by Ibn al-Haytham (Alhazen) alongside contributions from predecessors Th bit ibn Qurra and al-Sijz , covering foundational topics such as circle properties and transformations, analytical methods, the mathematical discipline of the Knowns, and the geometrisation of place. Published by Routledge as part of the Culture and Civilization in the Middle East series, this scholarly volume provides essential insight into how medieval Islamic mathematicians developed geometric principles that shaped the history of mathematics. Ideal for historians, mathematicians, and students of medieval science seeking to understand the intellectual heritage of Arabic mathematical thought.
