Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book's insights into the development of calculus centre on the analytical geometry of RenĂ Descartes, who introduced algebraic equations to geometry, and Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz, who independently developed infinitesimal calculus, a mathematical tool which allowed scientists to calculate rates of change. These developments had an immense impact on the advancement of mathematics and science. The author explains how differential calculus grew out of attempts to use algebra to solve geometric problems; this led to the development of new mathematical concepts such as the derivative, which measures the instantaneous rate of change of a function. Integral calculus grew out of attempts to calculate areas and volumes of curved shapes and was instrumental in the development of mathematical physics.
