Original article title:
The journal 鈥淗istory of Science in South Asia鈥� (HSSA) publishes high-quality research on the history of science, focusing on South Asia but also welcoming studies on broader cultural influences. It adopts a broad definition of 鈥渟cience鈥� and encourages theoretical discussions and offers open access. Although initially supported by the Sayahna Foundation, it is now aided by the University of Alberta and 脡rudit.

Summary of article contents:
The purpose of this paper is to review the general organization of knowledge in the 碍谤颈测腻办谤补尘补办补谤墨, a sixteenth-century treatise of Kerala mathematics. Specifically, I will argue that the authors' interest in justification or proof is integrative, rather than hierarchical or cumulative. In other words, the purpose of proofs in the 碍谤颈测腻办谤补尘补办补谤墨 is to connect various different aspects of mathematics, rather than just establish results by means of previously known results.
