Bøger af Augustus De Morgan

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

First notions of logic (preparatory to the study of geometry) "", has been considered a very important part of the human history, but is currently not available in printed formats. Hence so that this work is never forgotten we have made efforts in its preservation by republishing this book in a modern format so that it is never forgotten and always remembered by the present and future generations. These books are not made of scanned copies of their original work and hence the text is clear and readable. This whole book has been reformatted, retyped and designed.

On the Study and Difficulties of Mathematics is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1898.Hansebooks is editor of the literature on different topic areas such as research and science, travel and expeditions, cooking and nutrition, medicine, and other genres. As a publisher we focus on the preservation of historical literature. Many works of historical writers and scientists are available today as antiques only. Hansebooks newly publishes these books and contributes to the preservation of literature which has become rare and historical knowledge for the future.

""A Budget of Paradoxes V2"" is a book written by Augustus De Morgan, a British mathematician and logician. The book is a collection of essays that discuss various paradoxes in mathematics, logic, and philosophy. The topics covered include the paradoxes of infinity, the paradoxes of time, the paradoxes of space, and the paradoxes of language. De Morgan explores these paradoxes in depth, providing historical context and analyzing the arguments made by various philosophers and mathematicians throughout history. The book is intended for a general audience interested in the history and philosophy of mathematics and logic. Overall, ""A Budget of Paradoxes V2"" is a fascinating and thought-provoking exploration of some of the most perplexing and intriguing paradoxes in human thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

1910. 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. He writes in the Preface that his object has been to notice particularly several points in the principles of algebra and geometry, which have not obtained their due importance in our elementary works on these sciences. Contents: On Arithmetical Notation; Elementary Rules of Arithmetic; Arithmetical Fractions; Decimal Fractions; Algebraical Notation and Principles; Elementary Rules of Algebra; Equations of the First Degree; On the Negative Sign, etc.; Equations of the Second Degree; On Roots in General, and Logarithms; On the Study of Algebra; On the Definitions of Geometry; On Geometrical Reasoning; On Axioms; On Proportion; and Application of Algebra to the Measurement of Lines, Angles, Proportion of Figures and Surfaces.

One of the key works on the development of logic, de Morgan's work forms the bridge between the researches of Hamilton and Boole. His greatest contribution to scientific knowledge undoubtedly lay in his logical researches; and the subsequent development of symbolic logic, with its powerful influences on both philosophy and technology, owes much to his fundamental work. Augustus de Morgan (1806 - 1871) was awarded the position of first Professor of Mathematics at University College in London in 1828. He founded the London Mathematical Society and was its first president.
