Philosophers at War: The Quarrel between Newton and Leibniz
Alfred Rupert Hall
Probably the most celebrated controversy in all of the history of science was that between Newton and Leibniz over the invention of the calculus. Philosophers at War reveals how the dispute arose and became embittered, the dispositions of the chief actors, and the shifts in their opinions of each other.
