Reasoning With the Infinite

Description:
The Scientific Revolution was revolutionary in part because it saw the advent of many mathematical tools -- chief among them the calculus -- that natural philosophers could use to explain and predict cosmic motions. Michel Blay traces the origins of this mathematization of the world, from Galileo to Newton and Laplace, and considers tile profound philosophical consequences of submitting the infinite to rational analysis.
