Linear inequalities were studied with some degree of generality at least as early as the time of Fourier (1824). However the first significant contribution to their theory was made by Minkowski in his
Geometrie der Zalzlen
in 1896. Since that time many papers have appeared in Europe, America, and Japan which have to do more or less directly with the subject. But some of these have been published in places unexpected or not easily accessible, and no general survey has appeared which attempts to take account of all of them.
