Synopsis
This book provides solutions to the mathematical problems that stumped the best minds of 18th-century England. From famous puzzles like finding three square numbers that add up to a square, to complex geometrical propositions requiring a deep understanding of conic sections and the fluxions of Newton's calculus, the author methodically takes apart and solves these challenging brainteasers. This text contains original insights into the mathematical ideas and techniques from a time when calculus was new and challenging even the most brilliant minds of the age. The author's detailed solutions provide not only the answers but also insight into the thought processes used by mathematicians wrestling with novel mathematical concepts for the first time in history.
