MAT 3010 History of Mathematics: Find Books

Why Books?

Books save time.  Books are summaries, overviews, compilations.  The author has synthesized hundreds of sources and the text has been subject to editorial and likely peer review.  Books are the next step up in thoroughness from encyclopedia or handbook articles.  Books may be in paper or digital.

Ebook Options in order of ease:  1) Read online; 2) Save interesting sections (usually as pdf); 3) Print directly; 4) Download.
