Growing out of a course in the history of mathematics given to
school teachers, the present book covers a number of topics of
elementary mathematics from both the mathematical and historical
perspectives. Included are topics from geometry (, Napoleon's
Theorem, trigonometry), recreational mathematics (the Pell
equation, Fibonacci numbers), and computational mathematics
(finding square roots, mathematical tables). Although written with
the needs of the mathematics teacher in mind, the book can be read
profitably by any high school graduate with a liking for
mathematics.
