Euclid Seeram Bücher

This is the definitive edition of one of the very greatest classics of all time—the full Euclid, not an abridgement. Utilizing the text established by Heiberg, Sir Thomas Heath encompasses almost 2500 years of mathematical and historical study upon Euclid. This unabridged republication of the original enlarged edition contains the complete English text of all 13 books of the Elements, plus a critical apparatus which analyzes each definition, postulate, and proposition in great detail. It covers textual and linguistic matters; mathematical anayses of Euclid's ideas; classical, medieval, Renaissance, modern commentators; refutations, supports, extrapolations, reinterpretations, and historical notes, all given with extensive quotes. "The textbook that shall really replace Euclid has not yet been written and probably never will be," Encyclopaedia Britannica.

Volume 2 of 3-volume set containing complete English text of all 13 books of the Elements plus critical analysis of each definition, postulate, and proposition. Covers textual and linguistic matters; mathematical analyses of Euclid's ideas; classical, medieval, Renaissance and modern commentators; refutations, supports, extrapolations, reinterpretations and historical notes. Vol. 2 includes Books III-IX: Circles, relationships, rectilineal figures.

A handy where-to-find-it pocket reference companion to Euclid's Elements. Provides all the propositions and diagrams without the detailed proofs. Readers can use it to see the scope and structure of Elements, identify exactly what Euclid covers and what he doesn't, and to find the location of remembered propositions.

The classic Heath translation, in a completely new layout with plenty of space and generous margins. An affordable but sturdy sewn hardcover student and teacher edition in one volume, with minimal notes and a new index/glossary.

Euclid was a mathematician from the Greek city of Alexandria who lived during the 4th and 3rd century B.C. and is often referred to as the “father of geometry”. Within his foundational treatise “Elements,” Euclid presents the results of earlier mathematicians and includes many of his own theories in a systematic, concise book that utilized a brief set of axioms and meticulous proofs to solidify his deductions. In addition to its easily referenced geometry, “Elements” also includes number theory and other mathematical considerations. For centuries, this work was a primary textbook of mathematics, containing the only framework for geometry known by mathematicians until the development of “non-Euclidian” geometry in the late 19th century. The extent to which Euclid’s “Elements” is of his own original authorship or borrowed from previous scholars is unknown, however despite this fact it was his collation of these basic mathematical principles for which most of the world would come to the study of geometry. Today, Euclid's “Elements” is acknowledged as one of the most influential mathematical texts in history. This volume includes all thirteen books of Euclid's “Elements”, is printed on premium acid-free paper, and follows the translation of Thomas Heath.

Designed for radiographers and radiologic technologists, this second edition enhances understanding of radiographic imaging equipment and procedures. It caters to courses focused on production and exposure, while also supplementing studies on digital imaging techniques, radiologic physics, and quality control. This comprehensive resource aims to meet the educational needs of professionals in the field worldwide.

Focusing on X-Ray Imaging Systems, this book serves as a comprehensive resource for biomedical engineering technology students and professionals. It covers key technical components of various imaging modalities, such as film-based imaging, digital radiography, and computed tomography. Essential principles like radiation physics, imaging informatics, quality control, and radiation protection are thoroughly explained, providing a solid foundation for understanding the functionality of these imaging techniques.

Focusing on the crucial topic of radiation protection, this book explores the high radiation doses associated with digital radiography and computed tomography (CT) examinations. It emphasizes the importance of minimizing these doses while maintaining diagnostic image quality, adhering to the ALARA principle. The text delves into dose optimization motivations, the ICRP optimization principle, and various factors influencing radiation exposure. Additionally, it presents effective strategies for dose reduction in both digital radiography and CT, making it a valuable resource for the radiology community.
