Yes. We believe that in a history of mathematics course students should study and do actual mathematics, not just read and discuss mathematics at a level often beyond their detailed comprehension. This book brings mathematical study and its historical context intimately together. Each chapter contains mathematics from a beginning to more advanced level, and thus can be covered at a level suitable to the level of the particular course in the curriculum.
