'It is really interesting to read how long the Leibniz-Newton dispute had serious consequences, how ideas changed in about seventy years, and the important role that was played by the LMS in this process.' Adhemar Bultheel, European Mathematical Society '... the narrow focus of this slender volume makes it worth reading ... the book provides novices with a sound introduction to major figures, and it will challenge the thinking of experienced academics.'

Ackerberg-Hastings, Choice 'It is really interesting to read how long the Leibniz-Newton dispute had serious consequences, how ideas changed in about seventy years, and the important role that was played by the LMS in this process.'
