Foundations of Differential Calculus

 (Google eBook)
Front Cover
1 Review
Springer, May 23, 2000 - Mathematics - 194 pages
The positive response to the publication of Blanton's English translations of Euler's "Introduction to Analysis of the Infinite" confirmed the relevance of this 240 year old work and encouraged Blanton to translate Euler's "Foundations of Differential Calculus" as well. The current book constitutes just the first 9 out of 27 chapters. The remaining chapters will be published at a later time. With this new translation, Euler's thoughts will not only be more accessible but more widely enjoyed by the mathematical community.

Page v - Those quantities that depend on others in this way, namely, those that undergo a change when others change, are called functions of these quantities. This definition applies rather widely and includes all ways in which one quantity can be determined by others.
Page vi - In this way, we are led to a definition of differential calculus: It is a method for determining the ratio of the vanishing increments that any functions take on when the variable, of which they are functions, is given a vanishing increment.
Page vii - To many who have discussed the rules of differential calculus, it has seemed that there is a distinction between absolutely nothing and a special order of quantities infinitely small, which do not quite vanish completely but retain a certain quantity that is indeed less than any assignable quantity.
Page vi - Therefore, differential calculus is concerned not so much with vanishing increments, which indeed are nothing, but with the ratio and mutual proportion. Since these ratios are expressed as finite quantities, we must think of calculus as being concerned with finite quantities.
Page x - I have nothing new to offer, and this is all the less to be required, since in other works I have treated this subject so fully.
Page xi - Here, everything is kept within the bounds of pure analysis, so that in the explanation of the rules of this calculus there is no need for any geometric figures.

About the author (2000)

Leonhard Euler was one of the most prolific mathematicians of all time, amassing nearly 900 publications over the course of his lifetime. Born in Basel, Switzerland, Euler spent substantial amounts of time promoting mathematics at the courts of Berlin and St. Petersburg. Euler was adept at pure and applied mathematics. His textbooks on algebra and calculus became classics and for generations remained standard introductions to both subjects. He also made seminal advances in the theory of differential equations, number theory, mechanics, astronomy, hydraulics, and the calculus of variations. In 1738, Euler lost vision in one eye. In time, he became totally blind but continued to write. During his life, Euler published more than 800 books, most of them in Latin. Euler died in 1783.
