This second edition of Sources in the Development of Mathematics, now in two volumes, traces the development of series and products from 1380-2000 through the interconnected concepts and results of unsung and celebrated mathematicians. This first volume is accessible to undergraduates, adding extensive context, detail, and primary source material.

Ranjan Roy (1947-2020) was the Ralph C. Huffer Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy at Beloit College, where he was a faculty member for 38 years. Roy published papers and reviews on Riemann surfaces, differential equations, fluid mechanics, Kleinian groups, and the development of mathematics. He was an award-winning educator, having received the Allendoerfer Prize, the Wisconsin MAA teaching award, and the MAA Haimo Award for Distinguished Mathematics Teaching and was twice named Teacher of the Year at Beloit College. He coauthored Special Functions (2001) with George Andrews and Richard Askey and coauthored chapters in the NIST Handbook of Mathematical Functions (2010); he also authored Elliptic and Modular Functions from Gauss to Dedekind to Hecke (2017) and the first edition of this book, Sources in the Development of Mathematics (2011).
