Description
Do Arabic Numerals Really Come from Arabia ? revisits with rigor and clarity the history of our numerals. Long called Arabic, they in fact originate in India between the 3rd and 7th centuries, where the decimal system and zero were born. The book shows how scholars of the Islamic world translated, refined and disseminated these innovations before Fibonacci popularized them in Europe. In less than ten minutes you will discover an intellectual odyssey linking Indian philosophy, Arab trade routes and the European commercial renaissance.

This synthesis highlights the importance of zero-an abstract concept turned driving force of mathematics, infinitesimal calculus and computing. It dismantles the myth of Arabic numerals and proposes using the term Indo Arabic numerals, restoring the Indian contribution while recognizing the role of the Arab world. With a clear and dynamic tone, this book invites readers to rediscover the shared heritage of civilizations and reflect on the importance of cultural transmission. Dive into this historical journey and share it !
