A History of the Study of Mathematics at Cambridge
(Reprint of the 1889 edition. Cloth. Hardbound. Octavo. xv...)
Reprint of the 1889 edition. Cloth. Hardbound. Octavo. xvii, 264 p. Cambridge, University Press: 1889. Walter Rouse Ball was the only son of Walter Frederick Ball. After attending school in London, he entered University College, London,where he studied mathematics, logic, and moral philosophy. His performance in mathematics was outstanding, and he was awarded the Gold Medal in that subject. After graduating from University College, he matriculated at Trinity College Cambridge in 1871. Three years later he was Second Wrangler in the Mathematical Tripos (which means that he was ranked second in the list of those awarded First Class degrees). Rouse Ball wrote A short account of the history of mathematics (1888) which provideda very readable and popular account of the subject. The fourth edition of 1908 was reprinted in 1960. He was also the author of the very popular Mathematical Recreations and Essays first published in 1892, which has run to fourteen editions. The History Of Mathematical Studies At Cambridge begins with medieval mathematics at Cambridge, and follows its study from the Renaissance to the commencement of modern mathematics. Of course, much time is devoted to Newton and the Newtonian school, whoare clearly the most influential mathematicians to come through Cambridge. There are chapters on Babbage, Herschel, Whewell and other less prominent mathematicians. A scarce title.
