"This book is a collection of interconnected topics in areas of mathematics that particularly interest the author, ranging over the two millennia from the work of Archimedes, who died in the year 212 B.C., to the "Werke" of Gauss, who was born in 1777. The book is intended for those who love mathematics, including undergraduate students of mathematics, more experienced students, and the vast unseen host of amateur mathematicians.
It will also be a useful source of material for those who teach mathematics."--BOOK JACKET.
