Leonhard Euler
Introductio in analysin infinitorum. 2 Teile in 1 Band. Lausanne, M. M. Bousquet 1748.

Erste Ausgabe eines der berühmtesten Werke in der Geschichte der Mathematik, das Fundament der modernen Analysis. "Euler did for modern analysis what Euclid had done for ancient geometry" (PMM).

"It contains an exposition of algebra, trigonometry and analytical geometry, both plane and solid, a definition of logarithms as exponents, and important contributions to the theory of equations. He evolved the modern exponential treatment of logarithms .. In the early chapters there appears for the first time the definition of mathematical function, one of the fundamental concepts of modern mathematics. From Euler's time mathematics and physics tended to be treated algebraically, and many of his principles are still used in teaching mathematics" (PMM).
