【Summary】
Ghiyāth al-Dīn Jamshīd al-Kāshānī was one of the most outstanding mathematicians of his age—arguably the greatest of them—and left behind a corpus of highly significant works in mathematics and astronomy. From the second half of the nineteenth century onward, historians of science gradually recognized the importance of his contributions, leading to a growing body of scholarly studies devoted to his achievements.
This book goes beyond a biographical overview to examine lesser-known and previously overlooked aspects of Kāshānī’s life and intellectual activity. It critically reviews earlier research on his works and reassesses his scientific standing in light of the most recent historical and analytical findings. By integrating biographical inquiry with historiographical analysis, the study offers a comprehensive and updated evaluation of Kāshānī’s place in the global history of mathematics and astronomy.
