3000 Years of Analysis

Advanced school students and well-motivated undergraduates can profitably read it, and it is a very useful general reference for the history of substantial parts of mathematics, placed in the context of contemporary social and political events. as a readable and refreshingly detailed account of the whole sweep of `infinitesimal methods from antiquity to the 1990s, this book is highly recommended. (Peter Giblin, The Mathematical Gazette, Vol. 107 (570), November, 2023)

This is a stilted but pleasantly readable English translation with some modifications of the 2016 second edition of the author' s book . The author concludes with an appreciation of the impact of analysis in modern society. Each major figure is given a short biography, and there is a wealth of illustrations: a painting, sketch or photograph of each person discussed . He illustrates the thought and practice of mathematicians . (E. J. Barbeau, Mathematical Reviews, June, 2022)

The work is intended to be broadly accessible and the clearly written text succeeds admirably at its purpose. The volume is profusely illustrated. The author has pulled together a mass of information and provides copious references to an extensive bibliography for the reader who wishes to delve deeper into particular topics. (Duncan J. Melville, zbMATH 1471. 01004, 2021)
