### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unique look at math history
*by A***D on January 14, 2022*

The writing is clear. It is a unique way of looking at math history. Traditionally taught straight timeline and the student is left to tie the subject history together. Good addition to a straight timeline.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A very readable history of math.
*by A***R on February 7, 2021*

A thorough and accessible history of math.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The last chapters of Vol. 1 are excellent
*by M***G on February 22, 2014*

I've been learning more about the history of analytic geometry and the mathematization of physics, so I consulted the last chapters of Vol. 1. Kline explains very clearly the innovations Descartes made but also his misunderstanding of Galileo's mathematization of physics. For example, Galileo (and Newton) described motion and gravity mathematically, but they did not attempt to explain WHY; Descartes mistakenly criticized Galileo's work because of that. There was an incredible change in thinking about science during the seventeenth century. Kline explains clearly how that unfolded mathematically. I only gave the book four stars because of others' critique of the early part of the book, which I didn't read.
