Add to basketOxford, Oxford University Press, [2005]. [6],656 pp. B./w. figs. Orig. hardcover (boards), d./j. 8vo. - Dust jacket with very light shelfwear. - Overall a very good near fine copy.The mathematician John Pell was a member of that golden generation of scientists Boyle, Wren, Hooke, and others which came together in the early Royal… Society. Although he left a huge body of manuscript materials, he has remained an extraordinarily neglected figure, whose papers have never been properly explored. This book, the first ever full-length study of Pell, presents an in-depth account of his life and mathematical thinking, based on a detailed study of his manuscripts.
