But it took another three generations of mathematicians to reveal the true extent of his output as they studied Gauss' extensive unpublished papers and his voluminous correspondence. This posthumous twelve-volume collection of Gauss' complete works, published between 1863 and 1933, marks the culmination of their efforts and provides a fascinating account of one of the great scientific minds of the nineteenth century. At the suggestion of Felix Klein, Gauss' twentieth-century successors planned a scientific biography consisting of essays covering the various areas in which he worked. Volume 10, Part II, (dated 1922–33) contains seven contributions, individually paginated and originally sold separately, relating to pure mathematics, probability and mechanics.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eÜber Gauss' Wissenschaftliche Tätigkeit auf den Gebieten der Reinen Mathematik und Mechanik: Über Gauss' Zahlentheoretische Arbeiten Paul Bachmann\u003cbr\u003e Über Gauss' Arbeiten zur Funktionentheorie Ludwig Schlesinger\u003cbr\u003e Über den Ersten und Vierten Gaussschen beweis des Fundamentalsatzes der Algebra Alexander Ostrowski\u003cbr\u003e Gauss als Geometer Paul Stäckel\u003cbr\u003e Gauss und die Variationsrechnung Oskar Bolza\u003cbr\u003e Gauss als Zahlenrechner Philipp Maennchen\u003cbr\u003e Über Gauss' Arbeiten zur Mechanik und Potentialtheorie Harald Geppert.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Mathematics [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Mathematics\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Mathematics%20%5BPB%5D%22\"\u003ePB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46005006631192,"sku":"9781108032339","price":60.68,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781108032339i_d84cbeb2-d1e5-42f2-92a7-0686e73f3dc1.jpg?v=1694873709","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/werke-paperback-9781108032339","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
