A very thorough investigation of problems of pursuits, based not only on mathematical sources but also on all sorts of other sources, literary, historical, poetical, etc. from the European, Chinese Antiquity, and Middle Ages as well. In particular, problems for the Suanjing shi shu (The Ten Mathematical Manuals) collection, from The Gexiang xinshu (an astronomical text from the 13th century) and also from various Indian authors are translated and examined in detail. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1007.00014].
