Description:Excerpt from Robert of Chester's Latin Translation of the Algebra of Alkhowarizmi, Vol. 15From the point of view of the history of science, no justification is needed for the publication of a mathematical text of the twelfth century, for the available material representing this period is meagre. A wider acquaintance with Robert of Chester's Latin translation of al-khowa'rizmi's Arabic treatise on algebra will per haps contribute to a more just estimate of the services rendered to science by the Arabs. In the English version I have not at tempted to give a literal translation of the Latin, but rather to express the thought in a phraseology which the modern student of mathematics will find easy of comprehension; by consulting the Latin text and footnotes the reader will be able to examine Robert of Chester's own words. For the convenience of readers interested in the text I have added a Latin Glossary in which are noted many variations from the usage of classical writers. In the Introduction I have presented a study of the significance of the treatise in the history of mathematics, and a description of the manuscripts upon which the text is based.This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
