Euclid's Elements
The classic Heath translation, in a completely new layout with plenty of space and generous margins. An affordable but sturdy student and teacher sewn softcover edition in one volume, with minimal notes and a new index/glossary.
Greek Astronomy
Published in 1932, this collection of translated excerpts on ancient astronomy was prepared by Sir Thomas Little Heath (1861-1940).
Euclid in Greek: Volume 1
Originally published in 1920, this volume contains book one of Euclid's Elements in Greek, together with an introduction and notes section written in English. It was created to provide young students with a contextual understanding of geometry and the development of geometrical principles, one which was increasingly neglected in the standard school textbooks of the time. By returning to the Elements in their original form it was hoped that students would gain a fundamental understanding of the ideas put forward in the text, one which would increase their knowledge and enthusiasm. It was also hoped that the dual process of learning Greek and geometry would be an effective way of impressing content on the mind of the learner. This volume will be of value to anyone with an interest in geometry and the development of pedagogy.
Mathematics in Aristotle
This is a detailed exposition of Aristotelian mathematics and mathematical terminology. It contains clear translations of all the most important passages on mathematics in the writings of Aristotle, together with explanatory notes and commentary by Heath. Particularly interesting are the discussions of hypothesis and related terms, of Zeno's paradox, and of the relation of mathematics to other sciences. The book includes a comprehensive index of the passages translated.
The Thirteen Books of Euclid's Elements
First published in 1926, this book contains the first volume of a three-volume English translation of the thirteen books of Euclid's Elements.
