Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book details a method of calculating trigonometric quantities invented by the Scottish mathematician John Napier. Developed in the 16th century, Napier's method provided an alternative to the unwieldy techniques of earlier mathematicians and laid the basis for modern techniques. Through Napier's system, trigonometric calculations that were at the time immensely complex could be executed through simple algebraic equations. Using clear language and in-depth exploration, the author offers a thorough examination of Napier's profound discovery, its subsequent evolution, and its historical importance. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
