DESCRIPTION
Algebra, with Arithmetic and Mensuration, from the Sanskrit of Brahmagupta and Bhaskara was one of the earliest fruits of the European encounter with the scientific heritage of India. While many of the other books of this period became dated and are now merely historical curiousities, Colebrooke's work remains as useful today as when it appreard first in 1817. This work contains English translation of two clasics of Indian mathematics, namely Bhaskara's Lilavati and Bajaganita.
