| May 6, 2010 at 1:50 | comment | added | Kevin H. Lin | This semester at Berkeley, there's an undergrad class on the history of math, taught by Hartshorne (yes, that Hartshorne) and Mumford (yes, that Mumford). I didn't attend any of it, though I did peek into the class once or twice and it looked pretty interesting. You can find their course syllabus here: dam.brown.edu/people/mumford/Math191 | |

| May 5, 2010 at 19:55 | comment | added | KConrad | There is a collection of Bourbaki's historical notes in a single book, as "Elements of the History of Mathematics." However, it certainly would not be suitable for non-science majors. | |

| May 5, 2010 at 19:50 | comment | added | user717 | Okay, you said "non-science majors". Probably Bourbaki is mathematically too advanced and historically not detailed enough. I'm sorry for this superfluous comment. :) | |
| May 5, 2010 at 19:43 | comment | added | user717 | What about the historical appendices in Bourbaki? (This is more a question than a hint). | |
