1861SS3608London:: Macmillan 1861. 1861. 8vo. xii 532 ads. 28 pp. Folding plate containing 12 geometric diagrams index. Original green blind-stamped cloth gilt spine; beautifully rebacked preserving original spine. Choice copy. Scarce First edition of Todhunter's important historical work including his own research. Todhunter designed his work to follow that of Robert Woodhouse whose A TREATISE ON ISOPERIMETRICAL PROBLEMS AND THE CALCULUS OF VARIATIONS 1810 covered the history up through the end of the eighteenth century. "Within these years he also labored at some works of a more strictly scientific character. Professor Woodhouse who was the forerunner of the Analytical Society had written a history of the calculus of variations ending with the eighteenth century; this work was much admired for its usefulness by Todhunter and as he felt a decided taste for the history of mathematics he formed and carried out the project of continuing the history of that calculus during the nineteenth century. It was the first of the great historical works which has given Todhunter his high place among the mathematicians of the nineteenth century. This history was published in 1861; in 1862 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of London. In 1863 he was a candidate for the Sadlerian professorship of Mathematics to which Cayley was appointed. Todhunter was not a mere mathematical specialist. He was an excellent linguist; besides being a sound Latin and Greek scholar he was familiar with French German Spanish Italian and also Russian Hebrew and Sanskrit. He was likewise well versed in philosophy and for the two years 1863–5 acted as an Examiner for the Moral Science Tripos of which the chief founders were himself and Whewell." – A. Macfarlane Lectures on Ten British Mathematicians of the Nineteenth Century New York: Wiley and London: Chapman and Hall 1916 pp. 134–146. Todhunter 1820-1884 English mathematician was one of the most influential figures in mathematical education of the 19th century. - DNB. Zeitlinger Sotheran I p. 249: "Very scarce".

Oxford DNB J. B. Mullinger revised by Adrian Rice "Todhunter Isaac 1820-1884"; Bibliotheca Chemico-Mathematica 249; Dauben 1361. Todhunter was one of the best-known British mathematicians of the nineteenth century. He was a lecturer in mathematics at Cambridge from 1849 until his death in 1884. Although he made some original contributions to mathematics his reputation largely rests upon his work in the history of mathematics; he wrote several influential books on the subject including the present volume. The book was intended to extend the well-known treatment of the history of the calculus by Woodhouse through the middle of the nineteenth century and includes coverage of the work of Lagrange Gauss Poisson Cauchy and others. An exceptional copy of this important work in the history of mathematics with an interesting association and scarce thus. An attractive Near Fine copy with minor wear to the extremities.
