Publisher's Synopsis
The book ""The Connection of Number and Magnitude: An Attempt to Explain the Fifth Book of Euclid"" by Augustus De Morgan is a mathematical treatise that aims to provide an explanation of the fifth book of Euclid's ""Elements"". The book explores the relationship between numbers and magnitudes, and how they are connected through geometry. De Morgan's work is based on his own mathematical research and analysis, as well as his deep understanding of Euclidean geometry. He presents a detailed and rigorous argument for his theory, using a combination of algebraic and geometric methods. The book is intended for advanced students and scholars of mathematics, and provides a valuable contribution to the field of geometry and number theory. Overall, ""The Connection of Number and Magnitude"" is a seminal work in the history of mathematics, and remains an important reference for anyone interested in the subject.1836. Augustus De Morgan was an important innovator in the field of logic. In addition, he made many contributions to the field of mathematics and the chronicling of the history of mathematics. This is his treatise on Trigonometry and meant to be used as a student text.
