In 1770, one of the founders of pure mathematics, Swiss
mathematician Leonard Euler (1707 1783), published Elements of
Algebra, a mathematics textbook for students. This edition of
Euler's classic, published in 1822, is an English translation which
includes notes added by Euler's tutor, Johann Bernoulli, and
additions by Joseph-Louis Lagrange, both giants in
eighteenth-century mathematics, as well as a short biography of
Euler. Part 1 begins with elementary mathematics of determinate
quantities and includes four sections on simple calculations
(adding, subtracting, division, multiplication), and then
progresses to compound calculations (fractions), ratios and
proportions and algebraic equations. Part 2 consists of 15 chapters
on analyses of indeterminate quantities. Here, Euler shows the
reader several ways to solve polynomial equations up to the fourth
degree. This landmark book showed students the beauty of
mathematics, and more significantly, how to do it.
This is a true African tale of persistence and tenacity. The story
of a farmer and pilot raised in colonial Kenya who went on to play
an active role in Mozambican politics whilst leading Lonrho's
foreign investment in that country. This unique memoir describes
life during Mozambique's transition from communism to democracy,
from poverty to an investor's choice. It has been a life creating
farms, gold mining and operating hotels through war and peace. Then
supporting peasant farmers and developing the conservation of a
private tropical island. It is proof that nothing is impossible and
Africa offers opportunity to those who persist. It is a personal
record of the changes in modern Africa and Mozambique in particular
an investor's destination. It should also be an enjoyable read.
