This is the first history of the development and reception of algebra in early modern England and Scotland. Professor Pycior analyses the struggles of a dozen British thinkers to come to terms with early modern algebra and uncovers these thinkers as a 'test-group' for the symbolic reasoning that would radically change not only mathematics but also logic, philosophy and language studies.
