Description of
Expounding the Mathematical Seed. Vol. 1: The Translation: A Translation of Bhskara I on the Mathematical Chapter of the ryabhatya
In the 5th century, the Indian mathematician Aryabhata wrote a small but famous work on astronomy in 118 verses called the Aryabhatiya. Its second chapter gives a summary of Hindu mathematics up to that point, and 200 years later, the Indian astronomer Bhaskara glossed that chapter. This volume is a literal English translation of Bhaskaras commentary complete with an introduction.
