Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Greek Geometry, From Thales to Euclid
The monograph of M. Bretschneider is most valuable, and is greatly in ad vance of all that preceded it on the origin of geometry amongst the Greeks. He has collected with great care, and has set out in the original, the fragments relating to it, which are scattered in ancient writersf I have derived much aid from these citations.
