The first ten chapters of this text outline chronological development and the last three chapters survey the history of differential equations, the calculus of variations, and functional analysis.
Analysis as an independent subject was created as part of the scientific revolution in the seventeenth century. Kepler, Galileo, Descartes, Fermat, Huygens, Newton, and Leibniz, to name but a few, contributed to its genesis. Since the end of the seventeen
