We shall see further on that he was a stranger to no science, and turned his attention, not to astronomy only, but to physics also, introducing the idea of attraction even into chemistry; his discoveries on the reflections, refractions, inflections, and colours of light, and likewise on sound, would have sufficed to make him famous. 16461716. Leibnitz, like Newton, opened a new field in mathematics, by his discovery of the DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS the basis of higher analysis which is to the mathe...matician what the microscope is to the naturalist. This Calculus and the Fluxions of Newton are about equal in power, but Leibnitz's Calculus is easier to handle: it almost requires a Newton to handle the formidable Fluxions hence the Differential Calculus is more used. As a geo- logist, Leibnitz propounded the doctrine of the GRADUAL COOLING OF THE GLOBE, the subsidence of its strata by fracture, the deposition of sedimentary rocks and their induration. Of Leibnitz's metaphysics, so famous and influential for a time, we cannot speak a word here.
