His most famous work is the three-volume Traité du calcul différentiel et du calcul intégral (1797-1800; 2\u003csup\u003end\u003c\/sup\u003e ed. 1810-1819) – an encyclopedic appraisal of 18th-century calculus which remained the standard reference on the subject through much of the 19\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e century, in spite of Cauchy's reform of the subject in the 1820's.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLacroix and the Calculus is the first major study of Lacroix’s large Traité. It uses the unique and massive bibliography given by Lacroix to explore late 18\u003csup\u003eth\u003c\/sup\u003e-century calculus, and the way it is reflected in Lacroix’s account. Several particular aspects are addressed in detail, including: the foundations of differential calculus, analytic and differential geometry, conceptions of the integral, and types of solutions of differential equations (singular\/complete\/general integrals, geometrical interpretations, and generality ofarbitrary functions).   \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Birkhäuser\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2008-04-17\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783764386375\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-7643-8638-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x165cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 468\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Birkhäuser Basel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46541653409932,"sku":"9783764386375","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783764386375.jpg?v=1775744495","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783764386375","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
