Felix Klein and Sophus Lie

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Felix Klein and Sophus Lie: Evolution of the Idea of Symmetry in the Nineteenth Century is a 1988 book by I. M. Yaglom, translated from the Russian into English by Sergei Sossinsky, on the history of the notion of symmetry and the mathematical works of Felix Klein and Sophus Lie besides other mathematicians, such as Camille Jordan, without focusing on biographical details, but on their ideas. There is no index. It was published by Birkhäuser.[1][2][3]

In 2009 the book was republished by Ishi Press as Geometry, Groups and Algebra in the Nineteenth Century. The new edition, designed by Sam Sloan, has a foreword by Richard Bozulich.[4]
