Abstract
MANY teachers of mathematics recognize the advantage of associating the subject with its history, but find difficulty in doing so in the time available. If they decorate the walls of their classrooms with Mr. Edwards's attractive charts, they will have available a stock of interesting information, illustrated with diagrams, maps and portraits, to which incidental reference can be made when appropriate.
An Illustrated Historical Time Chart of Elementary Mathematics:
