William Oughtred (1574-1660) was a English mathematician who is credited with the invention of the slide rule. It was Oughtred who introduced the symbol 'x' indicate multiplication, as well as 'sin' and 'cos' abbreviations. The Clavis Mathematicae (The Key to Mathematics) was first published in 1631. It includes a descriptions of alternate mathematical notations, as well as decimal fractions and algebra. Oughtred's preference for a symbolic language of mathematics is laid out; His use of the 'x' symbol for multiplication, the '::' for proportion and sin/cos for those functions have been universally adopted. The book was reprinted in 1647 in English and in 1648, 1652, 1667 & 1693 in the original Latin. This copy retains original leather spine, but text block is split in 2 pieces at page 82/83. Front blank detached but present. No covers attached to the text block. One cover present (appears to be rear cover). Title page toned and chipped at the edges. Dozens of diagrams and tables and mathematical equations throughout. Text in Latin. Measures 4" x 6".
