Plato’s method was used in the sixteenth century by wine gaugers to construct a cubic gauging rod..A line segment of length . can be constructed using a neusis method, which we discuss in depth.

Book 2017The book traces the history of these problems, stating them in modern terminology. By focusing on constructions and the use of IGS the reader is confronted with the same problems that ancient mathematicians once faced. The reader can step into the footsteps of Euclid, Viète and Cusanus amongst other
