Life of Archimedes (1 янв 287 г. до нашей эры – 1 янв 212 г. до нашей эры)

Описание:

"a native of Syracuse who was interested in nearly everything. A clever inventor, he devised a water screw to draw water from a lower to a higher level, a compound pulley to lift heavy weights, and several war machines. His chief interest, however, lay in pure mathematics. He founded the science of hydrostatics (the study of fluids at rest) and discovered the principle that the volume of a solid floating in a liquid is equal to the volume of the liquid displaced by the solid."
