Subhash Kak, Editor This sourcebook will consist primarily of reprinted articles on Indic contributions in math and science, as well as several new essays to contextualize these works. It will bring together the works of top scholars which are currently scattered thoughout disparate journals, and will thus make them far more accessible to the average reader. There are two main reasons why this sourcebook is being assembled. First, it is our hope that by highlighting the work of ancient and medieval Indian scientists we might challenge the stereotype that Indian thought is "mystical" and "irrational". Secondly, by pointing out the numerous achievements of Indian scientists, we hope to show that India had a scientific "renaissance" that was at least as important as the European renaissance which followed it, and which, indeed, is deeply indebted to it. Currently, the following table of contents is proposed for this volume:

http://www.dunbarmath.com/Pyth/Bhaskara/bhaskara1.htm
Bhaskara's First Proof of the Pythagorean Theorem by Kristina Dunbar and Laura Evans, UGA Bhaskara (1114 - 1185) was a Hindu mathematician who lived in Ujjain, in what is now central India. Ujjain was known as a center for mathematics and astronomy in India for hundreds of years. He is also known as Bhaskara II and Bhaskaracharya, meaning "Bhaskara the Teacher". He was the head of the astronomical observatory at Ujjain, where other famous Indian mathematicians including Brahmagupta had studied and worked previously. Bhaskara produced six works during his lifetime: Lilavati Bijaganita Siddhantasiromani Vasanabhasya of Mitaksara Brahmatulya , and Vivarana . These were all books on math or astronomy, with some of them being commentaries on his own works or that of others. Lilavati has an interesting story associated with how it got its name: Bhaskaracharya created a horoscope for his daughter Lilavati, stating exactly when she needed to get married. He placed a cup with a small hole in it in a tub of water, and the time at which the cup sank was the optimum time Lilavati was to get married. Unfortunately, a pearl fell into the cup, blocking the hole and keeping it from sinking. Lilavati was then doomed never to wed, and her father Bhaskara wrote her a manual on mathematics in order to console her, and named it Lilavati Bhaskara was excellent at arithmetic, including a good concept of negative and zero numbers. He was also good at solving equations and had an understanding of mathematical systems years ahead of his European peers.

Yantras of Jantar Mantar
Jantar Mantar or the Yantra mandir - the temple of instruments. Talking of Yantras, what comes to one's mind are the observatories of Jantar Mantar built by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II.
Year 1719 A.D., Place : Delhi, Location : Red Fort - A noisy session about the auspicious time for the emperor Mohammed Shah to embark upon a big expedition. The maulvis and pandits did not have astronomical laboratories to verify the calculations and hence the confusion and debate. The spectator was Maharaj Sawai Jai Singh II. He decided to construct huge stone astronomical observatories to educate people. By 1724 A.D., the first observatory at Delhi was completed. The maharaja himself carried out experiments and observations for nearly seven years at this observatory. The next one was constructed at Jaipur in 1728 A.D. and the others at Ujjain, Varanasi and Mathura. All the yantras were made of red sand stone, marble and iron.
Sawai Jai Singh wanted to promote the scientific approach to astonomy and astrology. To acquaint people with the scientific aspect of the Sun, moon, stars and the various astronomical phenomena, he designed the various yantras. Let us learn how to use some of these yantras. You can also make your own DhoopGari (Sundial) and star clock.

Author Ravinder Kumar
This 9-page microworld explores arc length of a curve, area under a curve, and surface area and volume of revolution. For simplicity we explore only those surfaces of revolution that can be obtained by revolving a curve about x-axis. Arc length, area, surface area, and volume can be found by dividing the arc, region, or solid into tiny portions in Riemannian spirit. You will be living in Riemannian spirit as you conduct explorations on the following interactive pages. The theory will be briefly explained on the help pages that can be viewed by pressing the button “math for this page”. Often an example or two may be used to explain the theory. When a page of the microworld contains a button named “instructions”, you can press it to view instructions for using the interactivity of the page in order to make explorations. Seeds for the ideas of integration that lead up to finding area and volume were sown much earlier than the advent of calculus.

Chakravala
Bhaskara II perfects Bramagupta's method for solving the varga prakriti by providing a method for solving the equation Nx^2 + k = y^2, when k = -4, -2, -1, +1, +2, +4. Bhaskara calls this method the Chakravala or the cyclic process. I will explain the cyclic method by means of an example taken from Siddhanta Siroman of Bhaskara. Bhaskara demonstrates how to find the solution of the equation y^2 = 67x^2 + 1. He starts with the pairs (1,8) and (1,s). (1,8) satisfies y^2 = 67x^2 -3, with "additive" -3, while (1,s) satisfies the equation y^2 = 67x^2 + (s^2 - 67) with "additive" (s^2 - 67). Bhaskara then applies the principle of composition or Samasa process of Bramagupta modification to Kuttaka ) to Aryabhata 's solution of this equation ( Kuttaka

1101 to 1200 Setting the scene Islamic culture is the most advanced in the western world. Many scientific and mathematical terms (eg "algebra" and "algorithm") are of Arabic origin, reflecting their roots in these early days of recorded science. The Islamic empire is vast, and much of its success is down to trade and commerce. Many countries become part of the Islamic empire and many others trade with it, so there is an input to scientific ideas from many different cultures including Iran, Turkey, India and China. The Arabic language becomes a unifying factor allowing ideas to be exchanged freely, and centres of learning and wisdom arise in a number of places, including Baghdad, Al-Ma'mum and Cordoba in Spain. Many areas of science and mathematics move forward during these years. Increasingly accurate astronomical observations are made, and mathematics benefits enormously from the introduction of Indian numerals - referred to today as Arabic numerals. With these numerals great strides are made in solving equations (algebra), trigonometry and numerical calculations. Chemistry becomes an experimental subject at last, as does physics. And health care is comprehensive, with doctors, hospitals and even special care for the mentally ill.

under whose rule the Tanzimat reform movement reached its climax. After initially promoting the first Ottoman constitution (primarily to ward off foreign intervention), he suspended it 14 months later and ruled thereafter as a despot. He used Pan-Islamism to rally Muslim opinion outside his empire; the Hejaz Railway was built with foreign contributions. Discontent with his absolutist rule and resentment over European intervention in the Balkans resulted in his overthrow by the Young Turks in 1908. See also Enver Pasha Midhat Pasha.

Brahmagupta writes Brahmasphutasiddanta (The Opening of the Universe), a work on astronomy; on mathematics. He uses zero and negative numbers, gives methods to solve quadratic equations, sum series, and compute square roots.

Mathematics science of spatial and numerical relationships. The main divisions of pure mathematics include geometry, arithmetic, algebra, calculus, and trigonometry. Applied mathematics include statistics , numerical analysis, computing, mathematical theories of astronomy , electricity, optics, thermodynamics, and atomic studies. Prehistoric human beings probably learned to count at least up to ten on their fingers. The Chinese, Hindus, Babylonians and Egyptians all devised methods of counting and measuring that were of practical importance in their everyday lives. The first theoretical mathematician is believed to be Thales of Miletus (580 BC) who is believed to have proposed the first theorems in plane geometry. His disciple Pythagoras established geometry as a recognised science among the Greek. The later School of Alexander Geometers (4th and 3rd centuries BC) included Euclid and Archimedes. The present decimal numbers are based on a Hindu-Arabic system that reached Europe about AD 100 from Arab mathematicians of the Middle East such as Khwarizmi. The basic development of mathematics in India (including Bengal) took place between 500 BC and 500 AD, marked as Buddhist and Jaina period. Mathematics in Buddhist and Jaina period The topics of mathematics, according to the Sthananga-sutra (sutra 747) are ten in numbers: parikarma (four fundamental operations), vyavahara (subjects of treatment), rajju (geometry), rashi (mensuration of solid bodies), kalasavarna (fractions), yavat-tavat (simple equation), varga (quadratic equation), ghana (cubic equation), varga-varga (biquadratic equation) and vikalpa (permutation and combination). However, the historians of mathematics differ in explaining some of the terms from the commentator, Abhayadeva Suri (1050 AD).

(1) Omar Khayyam's (ca. 1048 - ca. 1131) rejection of negative numbers, introduced in India by Brahmagupta, b. 598, was supposed to indicate that the use of negative numbers "died out in India," if it really did at that time. Scorgie [1989, p. 317] claimed this to be invalid because a comment contained in Colebrooke [ 1973, p. iii], accompanying his translation of Brahmagupta together with that of Bhaskara II (b. 1115, Bhaskara hereafter), demonstrated that the work of the latter "was in the hands of both Mahammedans and Hindus between two and three centuries ago."
