A Primer of the History of Mathematics is a book written by Walter William Rouse Ball and originally published in 1895. It provides an overview of the development of mathematics from ancient times to the end of the 19th century. The book is divided into 22 chapters, each covering a different period or topic in the history of mathematics. Topics include the mathematics of ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, as well as the contributions of medieval Islamic scholars and European mathematicians during the Renaissance and Enlightenment periods. The book also covers the development of calculus and the rise of modern mathematics in the 19th century. Throughout the book, Ball emphasizes the importance of the historical context in understanding mathematical ideas and concepts. The book is intended for students and general readers interested in the history of mathematics, and provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
