21. Euclid's Other Works
It is probable that gherard of cremona (11141187) translated this edition intoLatin, and the work became well known because of this to the scholars of the

Euclid's Other Works
Phaenomena / Data / Optica / Catoptrica / Sectio Canonis / On Divisions / Pseudaria / Surface-Loci Title Page to L. Berggren's and R. Thomas's translation of Euclid's Phaenomena PHAENOMENA This is Euclidís astronomical work and is still available today. The Phaenomena is a book containing 18 propositions dealing with spherical geometry. It was perhaps written shortly after Autolycusís Moving Sphere , on the same subject, and another work entitled Spaerica , possibly compiled by Eudoxus . The Phaenomena deals with geometrical proofs of propositions which are established by observation, primarily dealing with the rising and setting of stars together or one after another, in a given order. It also contains ten propositions related to the problem of determining the length of daylight on a given day at a given locality. DATA The focus of the Data is concerned with the first six books of the Elements ; it is often considered a supplement. This is a collection of geometrical theorems and ninety-six exercises (many editions contain a different number of exercises, usually in agreement around 94) intended to allow the reader to gain a better knowledge of solving problems. The Data is considered appropriate to one of the goals of Greek mathematics, namely, the solution of new problems. This manual contains propositions concerning certain given or determined magnitudes, and from this other magnitudes can also be determined.

  • Serenus
    Born: about 300 in Antinoupolis, Egypt Died: about 360. Serenus wrote On the Section of a Cylinder and On the Section of a Cone . He also wrote a commentry on Apollonius's Conics which is lost.
  • Ahmed ibn Yusuf
    Born: 835 in Baghdad (now in Iraq) Died: 912 in Cairo, Egypt. Ahmed ibn Yusuf wrote on ratio and proportion and it was translated into Latin by Gherard of Cremona. The book is largely a commentary on, and expansion of, Book 5 of Euclid's Elements . Ahmed ibn Yusuf also gave methods to solve tax problems which appear in Fibonacci's Liber Abaci . He was also quoted by Bradwardine, Jordanus and Pacioli.
  • Abu Kamil Shuja ibn Aslam ibn Muhammad ibn Shuja
    Born: about 850 in (possibly) Egypt. Died: about 930. Abu Kamil Shuja is sometimes known as al'Hasib and he worked on integer solutions of equations. He also gave the solution of a fourth degree equation and of a quadratic equation with irrational coefficients. Abu Kamil's work was the basis of Fibonacci's books. He lived later than al'Khwarizmi and his biggest advance was in the use of irrational coefficients.
  • Theon of Alexandria
    Born: about 335 in (possibly) Alexandria, Egypt. Died: about 395. Theon was the father of Hypatia and worked in Alexandria as a professor of mathematics and astronomy. He produced commentaries on many works such as Ptolemy's Almagest and works of Euclid. Theon was a competent but unoriginal mathematician. Theon's version of Euclid's Elements (with textual changes and some additions) was the only Greek text of the Elements known, until an earlier one was discovered in the Vatican in the late 19

    CHAPTER VII.
    THE MORTLAKE CIRCLE AND ELIZABETHAN ENDEAVOUR
    I. Dee settles at Mortlake - his household - connections with Sydney family - with the mathematician Thomas Allen - attacked with Allen, Lopez and Julio in Leicester's Commonwealth - friendship with Dyer - attempts to engage Dyer's influence in his political schemes.
    de Superficerum Divisiorum with Commandine in Italy - Dee's identification of the work as Euclid's.
    III. The English Euclid published - Dee, Billingsley and Whitehead - its novelty - thesis of the Preface , the three levels of mathematics - reflections of this in introductions to the separate books - Dee's defence against charges of conjuring - his appeal for wider mathematical instruction and for dissemination of scientific works in the vernacular - parallels with Gilbert's proposal for founding Academy on new educational principals and for scientific research.
    IV. Concern of the Preface and Dee's annotations with the new artisan and technical classes - the appeal Dee's work had for them - their conscious independence, experimental approach and increasing respect for mathematics.
    V. Dee's special interest in navigation - his paradoxal compass - the problem of longitude finding (n.91) - his compass of variation and contemporary descriptions.

    Faculty of Medicine, Damascus University, Damascus, Syria Dear colleagues and friends:
    Between the pervious issue of this newsletter and this issue, our region have witnessed major events that affected each one of us in one way or another. I wish that all the tragic events and the suffering would be over soon. I hope that, by advancing our scientific work, we can decrease the suffering of our people and build a prosperous future for our Arab Nation. One of the main decisions adopted by the Damascus meeting of AD/IAP was the establishment of the Arab School of Pathology.

    Last revision: June 30, 1999 The term ST. PETERSBURG PARADOX was coined by d'Alembert, who received a solution by Daniel Bernoulli in 1731 and published it in Commentarii Akad. Sci. Petropolis 5, 175-192 (1738). The originator of the St. Petersburg paradox was Niklaus Bernoulli. (Jacques Dutka, "On the St. Petersburg paradox," Arch. Hist. Exact Sci. 39, No.1, 1988) SADDLE POINT is found in 1922 in A Treatise on the Theory of Bessel Functions by G. N. Watson (OED2). SAMPLE SPACE appears in W. Feller, "Note on regions similar to the sample space," Statist. Res. Mem., Univ. London 2, 117-125 (1938). The term may have been used earlier by Richard von Mises (1883-1953). SCALAR. See vector. SCALAR PRODUCT. See vector product. SCALENE. In Sir Henry Billingsley's 1570 translation of Euclid's Elements scalenum is used as a noun: "Scalenum is a triangle, whose three sides are all unequall." In 1642 scalene is found in a rare use as a noun, referring to a scalene triangle in Song of Soul by Henry More: "But if 't consist of points: then a Scalene I'll prove all one with an Isosceles." The earliest use of scalene as an adjective is in 1684 in Angular Sections by John Wallis: "The Scalene Cone and Cylinder." The earliest use of
