Summary

Babylonian Mathematics explores the sophisticated mathematical system developed in ancient Babylonia, highlighting its lasting influence on modern science and mathematics. The book delves into their innovative base-60 number system, which remarkably survives today in our measurement of time and angles, and their advanced algebraic techniques. Discover how the Babylonians solved complex equations and understood geometric principles, including a version of the Pythagorean Theorem predating Pythagoras himself. 

 
The book carefully reconstructs the historical context of Babylonian mathematical innovation, examining cuneiform texts and the role of scribes in developing mathematical tools for administration and commerce. By analyzing translated clay tablets, the author reveals the practical applications of their mathematics, offering a unique perspective on how they tackled real-world problems. Each chapter progresses from the number system to algebra, geometry, and finally, the lasting legacy of Babylonian contributions.

    Across the United States and around the world, there has been an ongoing resurgence in classical education, including among Catholics. The classical model, rooted in the ancient Socratic method, is flourishing, and classical Catholic schools continue to multiply and grow. But classical education also has its detractors. Some parents and teachers worry that it is impractical, outdated, or, worse, judgmental.       In Know Thyself, Andrew Youngblood, an educator with decades of experience in classical learning as both a student and teacher, introduces readers to this exciting education alternative and its intellectual and spiritual benefits. Youngblood defines the essence of classical Catholic education, explores its integrated and narrative approach to learning, and presents its transformative power and beauty.       Through brief vignettes, personal anecdotes from students and teachers, and examples from the classroom, Know Thyself makes a positive case for an education journey that teaches students to see themselves through God’s eyes—and to truly know themselves and who they are called to be.
