Abstract
THE time has not yet come for anything like a complete or final history of mathematics m the Far East; meanwhile Mr. Mikami's work will be welcomed as being practically the first book on the subject accessible to Europeans. Its contents are unavoidably miscellaneous, but there are two or three topics on which some remarks can be made.
The Development of Mathematics in China and Japan.
