About From China to Paris: 2000 Years Transmission of Mathematical Ideas

Die Frage nach der Ubermittlung mathematischen Wissens zwischen verschiedenen Kulturen ist in den letzten Jahren zu einem Schwerpunkt mathematikhistorischer Untersuchungen geworden. Hierzu ist die Zusammenarbeit von Spezialisten erforderlich, die sich mit verschiedenen Kulturen, Sprachen und mathematischen Traditionen beschaftigen. Das vorliegende Buch, das Ergebnis von Tagungen im Mathematischen Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach und im Research and Conference Center der Rockefeller Foundation in Bellagio, behandelt die vielfaltigen Wege, die bei der Vermittlung mathematischen Wissens von den Babyloniern bis zum 17. Jahrhundert eingeschlagen wurden, und insbesondere den Austausch mathematischer Ideen von Indien uber China und die arabische Welt bis nach Westeuropa. Contents: K.
