In Two Volumes. Additional Contributor Is David Eugene Smith.
Originally published in 1915, this book contains an English
translation of a reconstructed version of Euclid's study of
divisions of geometric figures, which survives only partially and
in only one Arabic manuscript. Archibald also gives an introduction
to the text, its transmission in an Arabic version and its possible
connection with Fibonacci's Practica geometriae. This book will be
of value to anyone with an interest in Greek mathematics, the
history of science or the reconstruction of ancient texts.
