Indian Mathematics: Redressing the balance

This essay explains the leaps and bounds made by Indian mathematicians in topics like infinite series expansions well before the Western world caught hold of them, and references the desire to make Madhava more of a household name when it comes to Calculus education. I’m learning Calculus as a challenging side-hobby, and have been motivating myself with ADHD friendly micro tasks like learning about the background of trig and inverse trig functions. It’s hard to believe how much math we’ll never get to read about because of lost works from Indian mathematicians like Madhava.
