Michael Bernstein

Michael Bernstein

Michael Bernstein (born 1949) is an American-born historian of science, residing in Chicago.

Bernstein is perhaps best known for his novel interpretation of Book II of Euclid's Elements, particularly Proposition II.14, for which he proposes a radical re-interpretation.

Bernstein's historical perspective is said to have influenced the work of Amir Aczel.
