Numbers through the Ages: The logic of the numbers
()
About this ebook
Where do our numbers come from, and how were they developed and who developed or invented them?
Questions to which there were no answers.
Even educationalists, who try every day to teach their pupils mathematics, may did and do not know any answers to these quite simple questions.
Every one of us uses the numbers every day, without thinking how they are actually developed.
The many color graphics in this book are further enrichment so that it can clearly be recognized which number is exactly meant.
Another part deals with the use of the numbers and without these we surely would not have attained this technological standard which we have today, and also naturally with
"clever brains“, who we have to thank for this knowledge.
In the Chapter no. 3, there are author's own thoughts for the improvement or one also could say the revolt of the number system.
Altogether one can say this is a very interesting work, which shall give the Readers much fun.
Mohamed El Bahry
Geschichte des Buches Was mich zur Entstehung dieses Buches veranlasst hat, hat eigentlich einen sehr humoristischen Hintergrund. Ich wusste lange nicht dass diese Zahlen (0123456789), die wir überall nutzen, arabische Zahlen sind. In meinem Heimatland wurden diese Zahlen immer als "europäisch" bezeichnet.
