About
"A collection of twenty original essays in the history of science and mathematics, written in honour of D. T. Whiteside. The topics covered embrace the main themes of Whiteside's work, emphasizing Newtonian topics, and are grouped under the headings: mathematics and astronomy before Newton; Newton's manuscripts; Newton's Principia; Newton and eighteenth-century mathematics and physics; after Newton: optics and dynamics. The focus on these themes gives the volume considerable coherence. This unique volume of essays makes available important original work on Newton and the history of the exact sciences."--BOOK JACKET.
