This book provides a critical edition, translation, and study of
the version of Euclid's treatise made by Thabit ibn Qurra, which is
the earliest Arabic version that we have in its entirety. This
monograph study examines the conceptual differences between the
Greek and Arabic versions of the treatise, beginning with a
discussion of the concept of "given" as it was developed by Greek
mathematicians. This is followed by a short account of the various
medieval versions of the text and a discussion of the manuscripts
used in this volume. Finally, the Arabic text and an English
translation are provided, followed by a critical commentary.
