Ancient Indian Leaps into Mathematics is written by B.S. Yadav and published by Springer Science & Business Media. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0817646957 (ISBN 10) and 9780817646950 (ISBN 13).
This book presents contributions of mathematicians covering topics from ancient India, placing them in the broader context of the history of mathematics. Although the translations of some Sanskrit mathematical texts are available in the literature, Indian contributions are rarely presented in major Western historical works. Yet some of the well-known and universally-accepted discoveries from India, including the concept of zero and the decimal representation of numbers, have made lasting contributions to the foundation of modern mathematics. Through a systematic approach, this book examines these ancient mathematical ideas that were spread throughout India, China, the Islamic world, and Western Europe.
