Synopsis
When Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz first arrived in Paris in 1672 he was a well-educated, sophisticated young diplomat who had yet to show any real sign of his latent mathematical abilities. Over his next four crowded, formative years, which Professor Hofmann analyses in detail, he grew to be one of the outstanding mathematicians of the age and to found the modern differential calculus. In Paris, Leibniz rapidly absorbed the advanced exact science of the day. During a short visit to London in 1673 he made a fruitful contact with Henry Oldenburg, the secretary of the Royal Society, who provided him with a wide miscellany of information regarding current British scientific activities. Returning to Paris, Leibniz achieved his own first creative discoveries, developing a method of integral 'transmutation' through which lie derived the 'arithmetical' quadrature of the circle by an infinite series. He also explored the theory of algebraic equations. Later, by codifying existing tangent and quadrature methods and expressing their algorithmic structure in a 'universal' notation, lie laid the foundation of formal 'Leibnizian' calculus., When Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz first arrived in Paris in 1672 he was a well-educated, sophisticated young diplomat who had yet to show any real sign of his latent mathematical abilities.

- s***l (29)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoThe Seller is commendable for delivering the book almost THREE WEEKS ahead of schedule. The book is also in perfect condition exactly as advertised. In which case the Seller and Product are flawless. However, the delivery Courier was a complete let down . Such that I only discovered that the book had been dropped on my doorstep by Providence or chance. Apart from the email I received, the Courier did not make any contact with me through the street level buzzer or press my doorbell to alert me.Concepts and Approaches in Evolutionary Epistemology hardcover Fine - Like New (N° 317048520181)
