2011 Reprint of 1928 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Illustrated with 31 illustrations. Florian Cajori was one of the most celebrated historians of mathematics in his day. Cajori emigrated to the United States at the age of sixteen. He received a Ph.D. at Tulane University, where he taught for a few years before settling in Berkeley. Even today his "History of Mathematical Notations" has been described as "unsurpassed." In 1918, he was appointed to a specially created chair in history of mathematics at the University of California, Berkeley. He remained in Berkeley, California until his death in 1930. "The Early Mathematical Sciences in North and South America" covers the contributions made in the field of mathematics by early practitioners in North and South America.

ShakeMap-rapidly, automatically generated shaking and intensity maps-combines instrumental measurements of shaking with information about local geology and earthquake location and magnitude to estimate shaking variations throughout a geographic area. The results are rapidly available via the Web through a variety of map formats, including Geographic Information System (GIS) coverages. These maps have become a valuable tool for emergency response, public information, loss estimation, earthquake planning, and post-earthquake engineering and scientific analyses. With the adoption of ShakeMap as a standard tool for a wide array of users and uses came an impressive demand for up-to-date technical documentation and more general guidelines for users and software developers. This manual is meant to address this need.
