Abstract

Among the treatises on commercial arithmetic written by Genoese authors during the XVIth and XVIIth centuries, those of David Veronese are with no doubt the most important. He taught abacus and bookkeeping and, in order to make his students’ learning easier, he published some handbooks, which had a good circulation. These books are the only ones which seem to be specifically devoted to the education of Genoese businessmen.
