Synopsis "Archimedes and the Door of Science "

2018 Reprint of 1962 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition. Not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. Illustrated Edition. With such inventions as the compound pulley and the Archimedean screw he provided the foundation for the sciences of mechanics and hydrostatics. And his original work as a geometrician gave modern geometry many of its basic tools.

Jeanne Bendick, through text and pictures, manages to bring to life this famed mathematician who so influenced all later science.
