Online Books on History by D. D. Kosambi, the Mathematician
One can access the classic books authored by the Indian Mathematician D. D. Kosambi on line.
The following books can be accessed on an Indian version of Guttenberg project run by an individual (Arvind Gupta, the Child toy maker from IIT).
Indian Numismatics
Introduction to the Study of Indian History
History and Society, Problems and Interpretations
Culture and Civilization of Ancient India
Myth and Reality
Combined Methods in Indology and Other Writings
Kosambi was a mathematician. However, his book titled Introduction to the Study of Indian History laid the road for the Marxian historiography on Indian history. A related observation and comment had been made in my earlier post.
