This was the textbook for a History of Math class I took at U of Iowa. The readings in each chapter are very interesting. As the other reviewers said, if you are interested in math, you will enjoy reading the text. The problem is that the attached essays and problems for each chapter are not possible to be solved/completed just given the information in the chapter. The readings are generally qualitative descriptions of the historical development and then the problems ask you to (for example) find the tangent to the curve the way it would have been done by this ancient mathematician and then by this other ancient mathematician, etc. I spent hours every week searching online for enough information to complete the homework. Good luck!
