About The Book: David Eugene Smith’s *History of Mathematics* is a masterful two-volume exploration of the evolution of elementary mathematics. **Volume I** offers a sweeping global survey, tracing the origins and development of mathematical thought from ancient civilizations—Babylonian, Egyptian, Chinese, Indian, Greek, and Islamic—to the early modern period. It includes biographical sketches of over 1,100 mathematicians, showing how culture shaped mathematical ideas. **Volume II** focuses on specific themes: arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and early calculus. Rich in historical sources, diagrams, and teaching insights, these volumes illuminate how elementary mathematics developed into a universal language across centuries and civilizations. About The Author: David Eugene Smith (1860–1944) was a pioneering American mathematician, educator, and historian of mathematics.
