Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a groundbreaking collection of previously lost works by renowned 17th-century mathematician Pierre de Fermat, a near contemporary of Newton and Leibniz. The author has meticulously gathered and analyzed these manuscripts, offering new insights into Fermat's pioneering contributions to mathematics. The book delves into Fermat's foundational work on analytic geometry, number theory, and probability. His innovative methods and groundbreaking ideas are presented in their original form, providing a glimpse into the mind of a mathematical genius who laid the groundwork for much of modern mathematics. The author provides detailed explanations and context for Fermat's work, making it accessible to both experts and general readers interested in the history of mathematics and the evolution of scientific thought. Through these lost works, the book sheds light on the origins of calculus, the development of number theory, and the fundamental principles that continue to shape our understanding of mathematics today.

In-folio de (12), 210, 1 f. bl., (4) pp., 5 planches dépliantes. Basane brune, dos à nerfs orné. (Reliure de l'époque.). Première édition. Premier tirage avec la page de titre ornée d'une gravure sur cuivre et non d'un fleuron gravé sur bois comme dans le second tirage et les feuillets a2 et e2 avec un ornement gravé sur cuivre en tête. Ce recueil contient la majorité des oeuvres mathématiques de Pierre de Fermat (1601-1665). Elles sont ici publiées pour la première fois. "Après sa mort, les oeuvres et la correspondance que publie son fils Samuel ne représentent qu'une partie de sa production. Mais ce qui nous reste suffit pour classer Fermat au rang des plus grands mathématiciens de tous les temps" (Daumas, Histoire de la science). Les travaux publiés ici sont en latin, mais la plupart de sa correspondance est en français. Exemplaire sans le portrait, comme la plupart des exemplaires, et ceux des bibliothèques Horblit, Honeyman et Norman. Des déchirures sur le feuillet de titre consolidées au verso. Trois planches sont en facsimilé [les planches en regard des pages 134, 144 et 166] ainsi que 3 feuillets [feuillet H3 (p. 61/62), feuillet Dd1 (pp. 209/210), feuillet Ee2 (le dernier feuillet)]. Ces planches et feuillets facsimilés proviennent d'une édition soigneusement exécutée et publiée en 1861. Les photos 13, 14, 19 et 20 montrent des pages en facsimilés. Reliure frottée. Provenance : Monastère de Saint-Sever (Landes) de la congrégation de Saint-Maur (inscription sur le titre de 1702 et sur la tranche de l'ouvrage). Cet exemplaire a donc des défauts, mais son prix est très raisonnable, compte tenu du prix des exemplaires qui se sont vendus ces dernières années. En français dans le texte 115. In-folio de (12), 210, 1 f. bl., (4) pp., 5 planches dépliantes. Basane brune, dos à nerfs orné. (Reliure de l'époque.) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - First edition. First issue with a copper engraving on title - there is a woodcut ornament in 2nd state - and folios a2 and e2 with engraved headpieces. This collections marks the first publication of the majority of Fermat's mathematical papers, as well as his correspondence with Mersenne, Roberval, Pascal, Gassendi, and other contemporary mathematicians. For reasons that are still not clear, Fermat never wrote for publication, but restricted himself to circulating his ideas via letter and manuscript, and insisted on complete anonymity for the few works of his that made it into print during his lifetime." (Norman). "After his death, the works and correspondence published by his son Samuel represent only a part of his output. But what remains is enough to rank Fermat among the greatest mathematicians of all time" (Daumas, Histoire de la science). The works presented here are in Latin, though most of Fermat's correspondence is in French. This copy lacks the portrait, as do the majority of known examples, including those in the Horblit, Honeyman, and Norman collections. Small tears to the title page have been repaired on the verso. Three plates (opposite pp. 134, 144, and 166) and three leaves (H3, pp. 61/62; Dd1, pp. 209/210; Ee2, the final leaf) are supplied in facsimile, taken from a carefully executed edition published in 1861. Photos 13, 14, 19, and 20 show facsimile pages. Binding somewhat rubbed. Provenance: Monastery of Saint-Sever (Landes), Congregation of Saint-Maur (inscriptions on the title page, dated 1702, and on the edge of the book).This copy has some defects, but its price is very reasonable, considering the price of copies sold in recent years. -.…

Woodcut vignette on title, two engraved headpieces, five folding engraved plates, & woodcut diagrams in the text. 6 p.l., 210, [3] pp. Folio, early 19th-cent. half red morocco & red boards (minor browning), flat spine gilt. Toulouse: J. Pech, 1679. First edition, and now rare on the market; this copy belonged to Dominique François Jean Arago (1786-1853), the great French scientist who made important contributions to astronomy, electro-magnetism, and optics (see D.S.B., I, pp. 200-03). This book, Fermat's only substantial publication apart from his edition of Diophantus (both prepared and published posthumously by his son), contains the majority of Fermat's mathematical work. Included are Fermat's important researches on analytic geometry, developed concurrently with, but independently of, Descartes, as well as his method of maxima and minima, based upon which some have proclaimed Fermat the true first discoverer of the differential calculus. It also includes the first printing of Fermat's important correspondence with Pascal which founded the modern theory of probability. There is also correspondence with other contemporary mathematicians, including Mersenne, Roberval, Wallis, Digby, and Gassendi. Although Fermat published practically nothing during his lifetime, his work was freely communicated to others in correspondence and was profoundly influential. Descartes and Pascal notwithstanding, many scholars regard Fermat as the greatest of all 17th-century French mathematicians. Fermat (1601-65), was shy of publicity and reluctant to communicate his findings. As a result, his discoveries remained comparatively unappreciated until the 19th century when they catalyzed the development of modern algebra. The title-page is in Horblit's second state (no preference), while leaves a2 and e2 are in his first state (no preference). The rare portrait of Fermat, not present here, was also not found in the Horblit, Honeyman, or Norman copies. A small minority of copies have the portrait; it was printed in a much larger format than the book and was probably intended only for large paper copies, of which a few survive (e.g. one of the two BL copies). A very good and crisp copy. With the signature of Arago on the title-page (his sale, Paris, 1854, lot 824 "in-f. dem. m. r.") and with a slightly later note of an English collector "From the Library of F. Arago, H.S." ? Dibner, Heralds of Science, 108"The above, published after his death, first presented his work and correspondence." En Français dans le Texte 115.

Horblit 30"Fermat is considered the father of the modern theory of numbers, and herald of differential calculus and analytical geometry.".…
