Overall a very good copy of quite a scarce title.Kalpa means "proper fit" and is one of the six disciplines of the Ved nga or ancillary science connected with the Vedas – the scriptures of Hinduism. This field of study is focused on the procedures and ceremonies associated with Vedic ritual practice. Kalpa is a Sanskrit word that means "proper fit competent sacred precept" and also refers to one of the six Vedanga fields of study. The Manava Sutra is classed as a being in the Yajurveda discipline and concerns ritual instructions and formula. This particular texts deals with the sacred geometry of altars. Manava would have not have been a mathematician in the sense that we would understand it today. Nor was he a scribe who simply copied manuscripts like Ahmes. He would certainly have been a man of very considerable learning but probably not interested in mathematics for its own sake merely interested in using it for religious purposes. Theodor Goldstücker was a German Sanskrit scholar professor of Sanskrit in University College London and founder of the Sanskrit Text Society. He dedicated the book to the great German physician Rudolf Virchow. N. Trubner and Co. hardcover
