{\it Geometric Calculus}, a translation of the1888 classic {\it
Calcolo geometrico} by G. Peano will give readers insight into the
work of a most distinguished mathematician who had a significant
impact on 20th century mathematics, and in particular, mathematical
logic.
Key features: * {\it Geometric Calculus} is an excellent model of
expository writing, * Peano's axiom system for a vector space is the
first-ever presentation of a set of such axioms, * work comes close to
being a modern introduction to linear algebra, * Peano clarifies and
