Показать описание
In the 17th century, geometry was the model of exact and reliable reasoning. Descartes, Leibniz, Newton and others appealed to the Euclidean tradition of Greek geometry to justify their ways of doing not only mathematics but also science and philosophy in general. The dispute between Newton and Leibniz on the nature of gravity is an illustrative case.
