A prominent educator offers a unique exploration of the
evolutionary development of modern mathematics. Rather than
conducting a survey of the history or philosophy of mathematics,
the author envisions mathematics as a broad cultural phenomenon.
His treatment examines and illustrates how such concepts as number
and length were affected by historic and social events.
