The History of the Priority Di∫pute between Newton and Leibniz Mathematics in History and Culture

“The reading of this book is recommendable because the precision in describing the most important mathematical aspects behind the dispute Newton-Leibniz, the attentive examination of the protagonists of the story, both from a scientific and a personal-psychological point of view, the thorough description of the relations-net behind such a dispute. Furthermore, the general scenario of this so turbulent and fundamental period for European mathematics and science is well described.” (Paolo Bussotti, zbMATH 1400.01003, 2019)

“The author’s style of writing is vivid, interesting and accessible. Other good features of the book include numerous photographs and illustrations (many in color), and an extensive ten-page, small print, list of references. … I look forward to the publication of other books in this series. … It belongs on the shelf of anybody interested in the history of calculus, and it certainly belongs in any good university library.” (Mark Hunacek, MAA Reviews, June, 2018)
