Publisher's Synopsis
The Method Of Fluxions: Both Direct And Inverse is a mathematical treatise written by Guillaume De L'Hospital and published in 1730. The book is a comprehensive guide to the calculus of fluxions, which is an early form of differential calculus. It is divided into two parts: the first deals with direct fluxions, which are the rates of change of quantities with respect to time, while the second deals with inverse fluxions, which are the rates of change of time with respect to quantities. L'Hospital's treatise is considered to be a seminal work in the history of calculus and has been widely studied and referenced by mathematicians and physicists over the centuries. The book contains numerous examples and problems, which are designed to help readers understand the concepts and techniques of calculus. It also includes a detailed introduction, in which L'Hospital explains the fundamental principles of fluxions and their applications to various fields of science and engineering. Overall, The Method Of Fluxions: Both Direct And Inverse is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of mathematics or the development of calculus. It is a testament to L'Hospital's skill as a mathematician and his contribution to the advancement of mathematical knowledge.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
