In Mr. Swetz's learned and engrossing commentary on the text, you
can find facts that will impress your boss and amaze your friends,
such as the mathematical origins of the words 'counter, ' 'banks, '
and 'digits.' The rich historical details support a compelling
account of how mercantile capitalism in the Venetian republic of
the early Renaissance crucially influenced the evolution of
mathematics and how mathematics helped the rise of
capitalism.
