«Arquímedes. Alrededor del círculo» is an essay on mathematical popularization by Rosalina Torija Herrera (Nivola, paperback, 144 pages, in Spanish).
Archimedes appears as a thinker interested in science in an era before scientists existed as a collective. The work brings together his contributions to mathematics and physics, frames them within the knowledge of his time, and traces their impact on later science, showing that his approaches still fuel controversies.
It is number 1 of the Nivola collection «La matemática en sus personajes», and the volume includes illustrations.
Aimed at readers interested in the history of science and in mathematical popularization.
