["Józef Maria Hoene-Wronski was a Polish Messianist philosopher, mathematician, physicist, inventor, lawyer, and economist., In 1803, Wronski joined the Marseille Observatory but was forced to leave the observatory after his theories were dismissed as grandiose rubbish. In mathematics, Wronski introduced a novel series expansion for a function in response to Joseph Louis Lagrange's use of infinite series. The coefficients in Wronski's new series form the Wronskian, a determinant Thomas Muir named in 1882.,.He published over a hundred works.,.In science, Hoene-Wronski set himself an extraordinary task: the complete reform of philosophy as well as that of mathematics, astronomy and technology. He not only elaborated a system of philosophy, but also applications to politics, history, economics, law, psychology, music and pedagogy. It was his aspiration to reform human knowledge.,." - wikipedia] Heavily foxed. Stains to half-title, title & several pages. Good. Seller Inventory # 030292
