Your interest has encouraged us to plan a self-publication of Cris Forster's manuscript Musical Mathematics: A Practice in the Mathematics of Tuning Instruments and Analyzing Scales . To accomplish this task, we will be applying to organizations and individuals for grants. Our goal is to go to press in the spring of 2006, and to publish a complete and unabridged first edition of 500 copies, with a retail cost of less than $90.00 per book. If you would like more information on Mr. Forster's 1300-page manuscript, please visit our Musical Mathematics page, which shows the Table of Contents of this work.

Student Papers: Term Papers On Stifel And Roberval michael stifel was a German mathematician who lived in the late fifteenth centuryand early to midsixteenth century. He was born in 1487, in Esslingen, http://www.student-papers.com/11470.htm
Extractions: Michael Stifel was a German mathematician who lived in the late fifteenth century and early to mid-sixteenth century. He was born in 1487, in Esslingen, Germany. The exact date of his birth is unknown. Stifel died on April 19, 1567, in Jena, Germany. His father was Conrad Stifel, a well-respected member of the community. When Michael was young his family did not have much money. Soon after this, Stifel began questioning the Catholic Church. He did like the idea of taking money from poor people. As a result of this, Stifel was forced to leave the monastery in 1522. Now he decided to go to Wittnenberg and become a Lutheran. During this time, Stifel became friends with Martin Luther himself, and lived in his house for a time. In 1523, Martin Luther made Stifel a pastor, but because of anti-Lutheran feelings Stifel was forced to leave this job.
Extractions: A favorite subject of prophets has always been the end of mankind and/or the demise of our planet and/or the collapse of the entire universe. Part of the technique, for some, is to place the date far enough ahead that when The End fails to arrive, the oracle is no longer around to have to explain why. Others, often to encourage the surrender of property and other worldly chattels by the Believers, prepare excuses well in advance and manage to survive the great disappointment that often follows a failed prediction. In any case, the resilient fans never discredit the notion; they merely redesign the details and settle back once more to confidently await doom. Here is a short list of some rather interesting end-of-the-world prognostications, beginning with biblical references and ending with some contemporary seers and their doomsayings. Judging from the record earned by the soothsayers in this matter, we may safely assume that our planet will continue very much the same as it is for some considerable period into the future.
Extractions: In Renaissance times the driving force behind mathematics was shifting from mercantile arithmetic to a disciplined pursuit of Euclid, Pythagoras, Apollonius, and Archimedes. (Struik 109) The printing press began to make these works more accessible in Western Europe after 1447. (Boyer 297) For a century European mathematicians struggled with the formidable task of playing catch-up with the Greeks and Arabs. Then, in the mid-16th century, significant advances, especially in algebra, began to appear in print. (Swetz 378) After earning an M.A. at the University of Wittenberg Stifel became a monk, and was ordained a Catholic priest in 1511. It was costly in those times for Catholics to ensure their place in Heaven through the Church, and when Stifel began to grant absolution without the customary charge, he became unpopular with his brothers. His admiration of Luther did not go unnoticed either, and in 1522 he felt the need to depart for the Taunus mountains. (Westfall 1) wortrechnung , or word calculus. (Katz 324) This involved assigning a series of numbers called triangular numbers to the letters of the alphabet, and performing calculations with them. (Otermat 1)

Extractions: MICHAEL STIFEL (1487-1567) Michael Stifel, partisan de Luther, prédicateur itinérant, s'est d'abord intéressé aux mathématiques pour des raisons mystiques, par exemple pour calculer l'heure exacte de la fin du monde. Puis, après les remontrances de son maître, il a étudié les mathématiques pures et a lu notamment les oeuvres de N. de Cues dont il est cependant difficile d'évaluer l'influence. Son principal apport aux mathématiques sera une simplification de la notation algébrique.

Extractions: j fowlds@hanifen.com It's been more than two years since the merger between Stifel and Hanifen, but you still seem to operate with a Hanifen division. Has this been a difficult integration? The integration hasn't been a problem, but we do need to build name recognition of Stifel, Nicolaus rather than create confusion between whether we are Stifel, Nicolaus or Hanifen-Imhoff. The major reason behind keeping Hanifen was that it had higher name recognition in the municipal bond business in Denver and in institutional equity. We've put together a group of very talented people in our research department. We're now making a major push toward making name recognition of Stifel a key part of what we're trying to accomplish. Will the company continue to expand? We've been expanding aggressively for the last year. We've added roughly 25 new professionals in sales, trading and research during the last 14 months. I expect to add another five to 10. As far as research people in particular, we expect to add another four to five senior analysts during the coming 12 months in financial services, health- care, consumer durables, computer services and the technology-telecom area.
Benjamin Franklin, Magician? James Logan also introduced Franklin to the work of michael stifel (14871567),author of Arithmetica Integra. This German mathematician pioneered the use http://www.pasles.org/Franklin/Gazette/article.html
Extractions: [This short column, which appeared in the Fall 2000 Franklin Gazette , is intended for a general audience In the final year of his life, Ben Franklin was living with his daughters family on Market Street in Philadelphia. 1790 was also the year of the first U.S. Census. That census was conducted by order of Article I of the Constitution, a document whose passage owed much to Franklins well-reasoned support. And as one of the worlds first demographers , he would have taken a keen interest in the census results. In those days, the survey was not very detailed; it counted the number of people in a household and catalogued them by gender, nationality, slave or free status, etc., but it would be another half-century before the census asked for each persons occupational category . Nevertheless, I wonder, what would Ben have listed as his occupation? Many titles and trades spring to mind: author, scientist, inventor, diplomat; not to mention postmaster, library founder, almanacist... Most likely he would go with "printer," of course. To this list I would like to add one other possible vocation: mathematician That Doctor Franklin was possessed of a wide variety of interests, both academic and otherwise, is well-known, but that is not so striking as the fact that he excelled in so many of those pursuits. Mathematics is a case in point. In the eighteenth century, America was still a century away from becoming a "world power" in mathematics; yet, in that vacuum stood Dr. Franklin, whom I have called the "reluctant colonial mathematician."

JOHN NAPIER, Mirifici logarithmorum canonis descriptio Rarely in the history of science has an abstract mathematical idea been received more enthusiastically by the entire scientific community than the invention of logarithms. And one can hardly imagine a less likely person to have made that invention. His name was John Napier. The son of Sir Archibald Napier and his first wife, Janet Bothwell, John was born in 1550 (the exact date is unknown) at his family's estate, Merchiston Castle, near Edinburgh, Scotland. Details of his early life are sketchy. At the age of thirteen he was sent to the University of St. Andrews, where he studied religion. After a sojourn abroad he returned to his homeland in 1571 and married Elizabeth Stirling, with whom he had two children. Following his wife's death in 1579, he married Agnes Chisholm, and they had ten more children. The second son from this marriage, Robert, would later be his father's literary executor. After the death of Sir Archibald in 1608, John returned to Merchiston, where, as the eighth laird of the castle, he spent the rest of his life.
