FIRST EDITION of one of Pedro Nunes' most important works. Written around 1534 in his mother tongue, the text was circulated in manuscript, having been added to over the years by the mathematician and translated into Castilian. It was at that time that he edited it in Antwerp. "The Book of Algebra is notable in several ways. Firstly, because it reveals that Pedro Nunes' mathematical competence was much broader than just the mastery of aspects of plane and spherical geometry, which are the basis of all studies of theoretical navigation and mathematical astronomy. Furthermore, Pedro Nunes treats algebraic issues with an abstraction unusual for his time and presents some very interesting innovations." (cf. BN) The work was well known and recognized by his contemporaries, with translations into Latin and French, inspiring some European mathematicians such as Jacques Peletier or Guillaume Gosselin. Rare and important.
