Florian Cajori (1859 - 1930)
Swiss-American historian of mathematics said: Indians were the
“real inventors of Algebra.” | Based upon his reputation in the history of mathematics
even today his 1928–29 History of Mathematical
Notations has been described as "unsurpassed." |
Societies and Honors:
(1917–18) Mathematical Association of America president
(1923) American Association for the Advancement of Science vice-president
(1924–25) History of Science Society vice-president
(1929–30) Comité International d'Histoire des Sciences vice-president
the Cajori crater on the Moon was named in his honour
