Epigraph

Dedication

To my dear colleagues, Constantin Carathéodory and Oskar Perron, dedicated in grateful memory of all the years spent in common effort.

The arithmetic and the algebra that we learn in school have been known for centuries, and the geometry taught in the schools is for the most part some thousands of years old. (Introduction)
