    Description

    This book deals with one of the earliest surviving “abbacus” treatises, one that is by far more orderly than any of the extant predecessors and is also the first to contain a presentation of algebra. The book contains an edition and an English translation of a manuscript from c. 1450. In addition, it features an extensive discussion of the contents of the treatise and its location within early abbacus culture.

    User’s Reviews

    Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

    ⭐Because Abbaco culture included the “merchant schools” of Venice (those being where Pacioli taught) I read this for the scant amount of economics in it, not for the history or the math,With that purpose in mind, I took away very little by way of volume but the quality of what I did find made the cost/effort far more than merely worthwhile.For those who will be reading it for its intended purposes expect a dense writing which provides a rich and rewarding experience
