Hello there
First of all, this paper that you are going to work on will determine my overall grade in the class, so please please make it perfect.
Second, the instructor already gave me the sources that I will use in this paper, so please use all of them (they are four), and its fine to use more sources (beside the original four) if you want to.
Books:
1) Waerden, B. L. van der. A history of Algebra: from al-Khwārizmī to Emmy Noether. 1903- Berlin; New York : Springer-Verlag, c1985.
2) Novy, Lubos. Origins of modern algebra. Prague, Academia, t. [ST 5] 1973.
3) Al-khalili, Jim. The house of wisdom : how Arabic science saved ancient knowledge and gave us the Renaissance. New York : Penguin Press, 2011.
Articles:
1) Kavas, Ladislav. “The History of Algebra and the Development of the Form of its Language,” Philosophia Mathematica (2006): 287-317.
As you can see; the topic “Algebra: an Islamic Contribution to the West” is very general. And you have to to do a NARROWLY FOCUSED study of the topic, the narrower the study is, the better grade I will get, and if I get a low grade, I will have to do a revision. So please pay attention and do your best.
I trust you, so please do it as perfect as you can.
the paper has to be (5-6) pages
thanks
