About the inspiring book
Summa de Arithmetica, Geometria, Proportioni et Proportionalita, by Luca Pacioli (Venice, 1494).
Luca Pacioli was a teacher, traveller, scholar and friend of such renowned figures as Leonardo da Vinci and Piero della Francesca. He was also the author of the Renaissance’s most important mathematics book, Summa de Arithmetica. Being familiar with the world of accounting, ledger books, and economic arithmetic, his treatise not only brought these ideas into print but elevated the concerns of the businessman and the accountant to the intellectual level of other humanities. It is the first published description of double-entry bookkeeping (the Venetian mercantile practice which still underpins global trade), contains the first appearance in print of the symbols for plus and minus and many of the ideas of Fibonacci (the 13th century mathematician who introduced Hindu-Arabic numerals to Europe).
