Trigonometric Delights
Presents both a survey of the elements of trigonometry and an account of its contribution to science and social development. This book shows how Greek astronomers developed the first true trigonometry. It traces the emergence of trigonometry, its origins in Renaissance Europe's quest for accurate artillery, precise clocks, and musical instruments.
