I love mathematics. I am an English major graduate, with up to Calculus math credits and a summer of teaching algebra. I find math, Fibonacci anyone, to be the basis for everything. I will even argue that language is binary.
I have a question for those in the math field: can anyone explain to me, or direct me to an explanation of, in easy to understand words the concept of - Automorphic Integrals
My one son is a math prof and that is what he goes to various universities and colleges and speaks about. He explained it as, it is a group of integers that you can do a lot of stuff with. He looked very astute and excited just thinking about it.

Then why has the Western world omitted or rarely mention any history or influences brought about by Arabic or Middle Eastern mathematicians? Has anyone read this book?

True, but in the last few years it has become more common to see documentaries recognizing the legacy and contribution of Arabic, Mid Eastern and Asian mathematicians of the past.
