But, if the root is constant, and only the exponent variable, the exponential will be more simple; and its fluxionwill then be had by barel multiplying the quan tity itself by the product under t e logarithm of the root and the fluxion of the exponent.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a selection of writings by the author that explores the topic of fluxions, a mathematical concept developed by Isaac Newton in the 17th century. Fluxions were an early form of calculus and this book is a key primary source for understanding the origins and development of that field. The author's examination of the ratio of the fluxions of the various parts of a right-angled spherical triangle is considered a foundational text on the topic. The work is recommended for scholars with a background in calculus and the history of mathematics as the author assumes the reader understands the fundamental concepts of fluxions and spherical triangles. The book includes 259 propositions and corollaries and was written in 1737, more than half a century after Newton's initial work on fluxions and the calculus. It stands as a testament to the importance and ongoing influence of Newton's contributions to mathematics.
