Abstract

FOR too long the history of mathematics in India was studied only by scholars suffering under the almost insuperable handicap of belonging to an alien civilization ; but recently a number of Indian mathematicians have made a welcome appearance in this appropriate field. Prof. Gurjar‘s little book on mathematics up to the twelfth century and on pre-telescopic astronomical instruments is full of interesting material, but its tone is altogether deplorable. Ancient Indian Mathematics and Vedha By Prof. L. V. Gurjar. Pp. vi + 202, (Poona: Ideal Book Service, 1947.) 6.4 rupees; 10s.
