Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
An understanding of developments in Arabic mathematics between the IXth and XVth century is vital to a full appreciation of the history of classical mathematics. This book draws together more than ten studies to highlight one of the major developments in Arabic mathematical thinking, provoked by the double fecondation between arithmetic and the algebra of al-Khwarizmi, which led to the foundation of diverse chapters of mathematics: polynomial algebra, combinatorial analysis, algebraic geometry, algebraic theory of numbers, diophantine analysis and numerical calculus. Thanks to epistemological analysis, and the discovery of hitherto unknown material, the author has brought these chapters into the light, proposes another periodization for classical mathematics, and questions current ideology in writing its history. Since the publication of the French version of these studies and of this book, its main results have been admitted by historians of Arabic mathematics, and integrated into their recent publications. This book is already a vital reference for anyone seeking to understand history of Arabic mathematics, and its contribution to Latin as well as to later mathematics. The English translation will be of particular value to historians and philosophers of mathematics and of science.

Maïmonide, philosophe dans la mouvance d'al-Farabi, était médecin, informé des mathématiques et maître de la littérature talmudique. Ce livre a pour ambition d'examiner les liens entre philosophie et science dans l'oeuvre de Maïmonide, et aussi de placer celle-ci dans son véritable contexte historique entre Cordoue et Le Caire au XIIe siècle. Les études rassemblées ici explorent plusieurs facettes de cette oeuvre: logique, savoir et philosophie mathématiques, écrits médicaux, conception du libre-arbitre ou des rapports entre nature et loi... Elles examinent aussi l'impact qu'a eu l'oeuvre de Maïmonide en arabe, en hébreu et en latin. Maimonides, a philosopher in the tradition of d'al-Farabi, was a physician, well-informed in mathematics, and a master of Talmudic literature. The goal of this book is to examine the links between philosophy and science in Maimonides' work, and also to situate it within its genuine historical context, between Cordoba and Cairo in the 12th century. The studies collected here explore several facets of this work: logic, mathematical knowledge and philosophy, medical writings, conception of free will and of the relations between nature and law, etc. They also examine the impact of Maimonides' work on Arabic, Hebrew, and Latin scientific and philosophical literature.

Quels sont les rapports entre recherche et enseignement lors de la renaissance mathématique à Bagdad au IXe siècle? Ce livre de Na'im ibn Musa, établi, traduit et commenté ici, est un document exceptionnel qui permet de poser cette question et d'y apporter une première réponse. Héritier de trois éminents mathématiciens - les Banu Musa - et élève du célèbre mathématicien Thabit ibn Qurra (826-901), l'auteur reflète cet enseignement et témoigne de la culture mathématique d'une époque.
