The book ''The Claim of Leibnitz to the Invention of the Differential Calculus'' by Heinrich Brarens Sloman was published in 1860. The book provides a detailed account of the controversy surrounding the invention of the differential calculus, a branch of mathematics that deals with the study of rates of change and slopes of curves.The book focuses on the claim made by German mathematician and philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz that he had independently discovered the differential calculus before English mathematician Isaac Newton. The controversy surrounding the invention of the differential calculus had been raging for over a century, and Sloman’s book provides a comprehensive analysis of the arguments and evidence put forward by both sides.Sloman’s book includes a detailed examination of Leibnitz’s manuscripts and correspondence, as well as an analysis of the work of Newton and other mathematicians of the time. The book also provides a historical context for the controversy, discussing the intellectual and political climate of the time, and the personalities involved in the dispute.Overall, ''The Claim of Leibnitz to the Invention of the Differential Calculus'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of mathematics, the development of calculus, and the intellectual and cultural history of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
