Jean Le Rond d'Alembert Later that same year, d'Alembert read his first paper on some errors he had found in Reyneau's standard text. In 1740, he submitted a second work on the mechanics of fluids which was praised by Clairaut. In 1741, d'Alembert was admitted to the Paris Academy of Science, on the strength of these and papers on the integral calculus. It took some determination on his part, submitting three unsuccessful applications in quick succession, before his appointment. In one sense d'Alembert's life was uneventful. He travelled little and worked at the Paris Academy of Science and the French Academy all his life. On another level his life was one of great drama as he argued with almost everyone around him. Despite this tendency, his contributions were truly outstanding. D'Alembert helped to resolve the controversy in mathematical physics over the conservation of kinetic energy by improving Newton's definition of force. He read many papers on physics, but when Clairaut began to read his own works on dynamics, a rivalry between the two began. In 1744, d'Alembert applied his results to the equilibrium and motion of fluids, and published a work which gave an alternative treatment of fluids to the one published by Daniel Bernoulli. Around the same time d'Alembert was contracted as an editor to cover mathematics and physical astronomy for an encyclopedia, but his work covered a wider field. When the first volume appeared in 1751, it contained a preface written by d'Alembert which was widely acclaimed as a work of great genius. D'Alembert worked on the encyclopedia for many years. In fact he wrote most of the mathematical articles in this 28 volume work.

47. Rocky Road: Diderot And D'Alembert Denis Diderot and jean d Alembert were neither paleontologists nor biologists.They did not make any earthshattering discoveries about the history of life. http://www.strangescience.net/didalem.htm

Diderot and d'Alembert From "Declaring an Open Season on the Wisdom of the Ages" by Robert Wernick From "Declaring an Open Season on the Wisdom of the Ages" by Robert Wernick The preface of the 1751 Encyclopedia of Diderot and d'Alembert states: The general system of the sciences and the arts is a sort of labyrinth, a tortuous road which the intellect enters without quite knowing what direction to take. Impelled, first of all, by its needs and by those of the body to which it is united, the intelligence studies the first objects that present themselves to it. It delves as far as it can into the knowledge of these objects, soon meets difficulties that obstruct it, and whether through hope or even through despair of surmounting them, plunges on to a new route . . . Denis Diderot and Jean d'Alembert were neither paleontologists nor biologists. They did not make any earth-shattering discoveries about the history of life. But it can be argued that they fostered an environment in which earth-shattering discoveries could be made. What Diderot and d'Alembert did was work with an army of experts and writers to publish an irreverant set of encyclopedias about science, art and trades in pre-Revolutionary France. The encyclopedia started as a simple, shrewd venture: a translation of a successful English work by Ephraim Chambers. Diderot and d'Alembert initially joined the project as subordinates, then advanced to editors. Once in control, they expanded the project's scope to try to encompass all knowledge. No one could really succeed at that goal, but they probably came close.

Jean Le Rond d'Alembert on Probability and Statistics These documents may be freely copied for use by educators and educational institutions as long as proper credit is given and they remain unaltered. This site may neither be mirrored nor these files reposted. Comments and corrections are welcome. Richard J. Pulskamp D'Alembert's earliest writings which bear upon probability and statistics may be found in the great Encyclopedia of Diderot for which he was the scientific editor. Of his contributions to this work, the most important articles are these two: Croix ou Pile Heads or Tails ) and Gageure Wager ) which appeared in 1754 and 1757 respectively. Several other articles written by d'Alembert are Absent Avantage Bassette Carreau ... Loterie and Pari . It is worthwhile to note that the article Jeu does not concern itself with games of chance at all, but rather refers the reader to the article Jouer . This latter article is unsigned and therefore not written by d'Alembert. The article is also unsigned. It is therefore likely that both were the work of Diderot. In Croix ou Pile d'Alembert introduced his famous error that the probability that at least one head should appear in two consecutive tosses of a fair coin is 2/3 rather than 3/4. In addition, he discussed the Petersburg problem. The article
