14. Euclid (fl. c. 300 BCE in Alexandria, Egypt) was a Greek mathematician best known for his text Elements, which almost from the time of its writing, exerted a continuous and major influence on human affairs. It was the primary source of geometric and deductive reasoning, theorems, and methods at least until the advent of non-Euclidean geometry in the late 19th century. Other than the Bible, the Elements may be the most translated, published, and studied book in the Western world.

No Shortcut to Knowledge | Euclid's Elements

"Ptolemy I. asked Euclid whether there was any shorter way to a knowledge of geometry than by study of The Elements, whereupon Euclid answered that there was no royal road to geometry." Commentary on The Elements. Proclus Diadochus (410-485). Euclidean geometry is the mathematical system attributed to the Alexandrian Greek mathematician Euclid (365-275 BC), which he described in his textbook The Elements, referred to as the most successful and influential textbook ever written.

Euclidean geometry: the study of plane and solid figures on the basis of axioms and theorems employed by the Greek mathematician Euclid (c. 300 bce). In its rough outline, Euclidean geometry is the plane and solid geometry commonly taught in secondary schools. Indeed, until the second half of the 19th century, when...
