Nicolas Bourbaki's multi-volume treatise "The Elements of Mathematics" contains, in each volume, a section or chapter devoted to the history of the subject. This book collects together these historical segments, without any claim to establishing a complete or chronological history of mathematics, but with an emphasis on the emergence, development and interaction of the leading ideas ofthe mathematical theories presented in the "Elements". In particular, the book provides a highly readable account of the evolution of algebra, geometry, infinitesimal calculus, and of the concepts of number and structure, from the Babylonian era through to the 20th century.
