This wide-ranging survey looks at the history of mathematics from the invention of numbers and language, through the realms of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry and calculus, to mathematical logic, set theory, topology, fractals and probability, and onwards to differential equations. The book is intended for the general reader, and links mathematics to the humanities, linguistics, the natural sciences and technology.
