Mathematics And Its History (Undergraduate Texts In Mathematics) (Vol 4)

By John Stillwell, John C. Stillwell

This is a brilliant book that conveys a beautiful, unified picture of mathematics. It is not an encyclopedic history, it is history for the sake of understanding mathematics. There is an idea behin...

Geometry Of Surfaces

By John Stillwell, John C. Stillwell

Geometry used to be the basis of a mathematical education; today it is not even a standard undergraduate topic. Much as I deplore this situation, I welcome the opportunity to make a fresh start. Cl...

Classical Topology And Combinatorial Group Theory
