Kiselev's Arithmetic
by A. P. Kiselev
Ages 9–12 · Grades 3–6
The foundational arithmetic textbook used in Russian schools for over a century. 7 parts, 214 sections. Whole numbers through proportional quantities, with mathematical proofs for every operation.
Kiselev's Algebra I
by A. P. Kiselev
Ages 12–15 · Grades 6–8
6 chapters, 126 sections, 239 exercises. From relative numbers and polynomials through first-degree equations, powers, roots, and quadratics.
Kiselev's Algebra II
by A. P. Kiselev
Ages 14–17 · Grades 8–10
12 chapters plus Supplements, 187 sections. Functions, quadratic systems, inequalities, logarithms, progressions, complex numbers, the binomial theorem, and continued fractions.
Kiselev's Algebra Problems
by A. P. Kiselev
Ages 12–17 · Grades 6–10
The companion problem collection to Kiselev's Algebra. Hundreds of carefully sequenced problems and exercises that mirror the chapter structure of Algebra Part I and Part II — the same problem set Russian students worked through alongside Kiselev's algebra textbooks for over a century.
Kiselev's Planimetry
by A. P. Kiselev
Ages 12–16 · Grades 7–10
Kiselev's proof-based Euclidean geometry text, translated into English from the original Russian source. 269 sections across 6 chapters: basic concepts, triangles, circles, similarity, regular polygons, and areas.
Kiselev's Stereometry
by A. P. Kiselev
Ages 14–17 · Grades 9–11
Kiselev's three-dimensional geometry text. Polyhedra, the five Platonic solids, cylinders, cones, the ball, and Cavalieri's principle. Pre-order for the English translation, delivery planned for summer 2026.
Kiselev's Calculus
by A. P. Kiselev
Ages 16+ · Grades 10–12 · University intro
The first complete English translation of Kiselev's calculus — the final volume in his school course. Single-variable differential and integral calculus, proof-based, with classical applications to mechanics and physics. The bridge from Algebra II into the analysis tradition that produced Markov's probability theory.
Rachinsky's 1001 Problems
by S. A. Rachinsky
Mental arithmetic practice · Flexible level
1,001 carefully selected problems from the village schoolteacher whose students were depicted in Bogdanov-Belsky's famous 1895 painting "Mental Arithmetic."
Perelman's Entertaining Arithmetic
by Ya. I. Perelman
Recreational arithmetic · All levels
The classic of Russian popular mathematics. Puzzles, riddles, and curiosities that make arithmetic genuinely entertaining.
Markov: Probabilities
by Andrei A. Markov
University level
The foundational 1900 work on probability theory by the mathematician who gave us Markov chains. A modern annotated English translation.
Rybkin's Planimetry Problems
by N. A. Rybkin
Ages 12–16 · Grades 6–9
The companion problem collection to Kiselev's classical Russian geometry — now in English for the first time. Rybkin's Planimetry Problems is the set Russian students worked through alongside Kiselev's geometry textbook for over a century. Kiselev gives the definitions, theorems, and proofs; Rybkin gives the problems that turn those proofs into geometric intuition. 970 problems across 16 sections, organised chapter-by-chapter to mirror Kiselev's Planimetry — from preliminary concepts and lines through triangles, quadrilaterals, similar figures, the circle, regular polygons, and the measurement of areas. Worked solutions for the harder problems, hints for the rest.
Malinin & Burenin
by A. Malinin & K. Burenin
Applied arithmetic · Flexible level
A complete English translation of Malinin and Burenin's Imperial Russian arithmetic textbook. 11 chapters, 301 sections. Covers numeration, operations on whole numbers, divisibility, fractions, ratios, proportions, percentage, interest, and Diophantine problems.
Aritmética (Español)
by A. P. Kiselev
The first faithful and complete Spanish translation of the classic Russian arithmetic textbook.
