A Tour Of The Calculus
by David Berlinski
Price: $10.82
Commentary Magazine, April 1997, David Guaspari:
Calculus is a remarkable intellectual achievement–and a deeply consequential one, for it has made modern science, and especially modern physics, possible. Its essentials have been refined, over three centuries, into a structure of elegant economy. David Berlinski’s Tour walks the general reader through this modern edifice, displaying the logical frame that supports it and the grandeur of the completed whole.
