Glen Robert Van Brummelen (born May 20th, 1965) is a Canadian historian of mathematics specializing in historical applications of mathematics to astronomy. In his words, he is the “best trigonometry historian, and the worst trigonometry historian” (as he is the only one). He is president of the Canadian Society for History and Philosophy of Mathematics, and was a co-editor of Mathematics and the Historian's Craft: The Kenneth O. May Lectures (Springer, 2005).

- Glen Robert Van Brummelen (* 1965) ist ein kanadischer Mathematikhistoriker. Van Brummelen wurde 1993 bei Lennart Berggren an der Simon Fraser University promoviert (Mathematical Tables in Ptolemy’s Almagest). Er war von 1999 bis 2006 Mathematikprofessor am Bennington College in Vermont und danach Professor an der damals neu gegründeten privaten Quest University Canada. Er war Senior Fellow am Dibner Institute for History of Science am MIT. Van Brummelen befasst sich mit der Geschichte der Trigonometrie in der Antike und im mittelalterlichen Islam im Zusammenhang mit Astronomie. (de)
