His work on the subject, first published in two volumes in 1631 and enlarged to four in 1639, was reprinted several times under the title De sectionibus conicis. His works on conic sections contain hundreds of problems published for the first time, as well as a multitude of ingenious and original methods that later geometers frequently used. According to Baillet, he succeeded Viète as the premier mathematician of his day. He studied the properties and nature of light and refraction, and he studied vision.

Although La Haye was in Touraine, Descartes's family connections were south across the Creuse River in Poitou Poitiers Education, travels, and early influences Henri IV. (1553-1610) In 1614 Descartes went to Poitiers , where he took a law degree in 1616. At this time Huguenot Poitiers was in virtual revolt against Louis XIII. Descartes's father probably expected him to enter Parlement, but, because the legal age for that was 27, Descartes had seven years to wait. In 1618 he went to Breda in the Netherlands for 15 months as a student in mathematics and military architecture in the peacetime army of the Protestant ruler, Maurice, prince of Orange. There Descartes met the physicist Isaac Beeckman, who encouraged him in science and mathematics and for whom Descartes wrote his Musicae Compendium (written 1618, published 1650; Compendium of Music During the period 1619 to 1628, Descartes traveled in northern and southern Europe, saying that he was studying the book of the world. While in Bohemia in 1619, he had three dreams that defined for him his career as a scientist and a philosopher seeking knowledge for the benefit of humanity. By 1620 he had conceived of a universal method of deductive reasoning, applicable to all the sciences. He had also investigated reports of esoteric knowledge such as theosophical claims to command nature. Although disappointed with the followers of the magician Raymond Lulle and the alchemist Cornelius Agrippa, Descartes was impressed by the German mathematician and Rosicrucian Johann Faulhaber.

Hoping this site will help for the advancement of the past His Life Born in 1591, at Bar le Duc, Lorraine, Jean Leurechon is the son of a physician. On 17 Aug. 1609, when he is 18 years old, he enters as a novice in the Jesuit college of Tournai, Belgium. His parents accuse the Jesuits of having abducted him. The Parliament of Paris ordains his release. Nevertheless, he continues to study theology in Jesuit colleges, at Nancy, and then at Pont-à-Mousson. In 1614 or 1615, he begins his career as a professor of mathematics, at Pont-à-Mousson. He stays at Pont-à-Mousson till 1627. He observes the comet of 1618, and he writes a booklet about it, printed at Pont-à-Mousson and reprinted at Paris. It is read by Peiresc, Aleandro, and probably also by other astronomers.

P-VALUE and prob-value. David (1995) discusses the difficulties in dating P -value, the idea of which goes back to Laplaceat leastbefore opting for a reference from 1960! Subsequently David (1998) chose W. E. Deming's Statistical Adjustment of Data of 1943. When Deming wrote the phrase "value of P " was current. It was used in Karl Pearson's (1900) "On the Criterion that a Given System of Deviations from the Probable in the Case of Correlated System of Variables is such that it can be Reasonably Supposed to have Arisen from Random Sampling" ( Philosophical Magazine , 157-175) and used very heavily in R. A. Fisher's Statistical Methods for Research Workers (1925). The use of P -values (or prob-values) is often set against the use of fixed significance levels, especially 5%. It is ironical then that the "value of P " should feature so strongly in Fisher's book when that work also did so much to popularise the use of the 5% level. [John Aldrich]

    Extractions: navegador Mydorge, Claude . Nasceu em 1585 em Paris, França, onde faleceu em Julho de 1647. Mydorge foi educado como advogado mas realmente pouco necessitava trabalhar, por pertencer a uma família rica. Podia devotar a maioria de sua vida à pesquisa em matemática geometria e física. Publicou livros sobre o sistema ótico, seções cônicas, De sectionibus conicis , e recreações matemáticas Examen du livre des récréations mathématiques publicado em 1630. Mydorge deixou um manuscrito não publicado sobre 1000 problemas geométricos e suas soluções. Seu interesse nos sistemas óticos ajustava-se ao seu interesse em fazer observações astronômicas. Foi um amigo próximo de Descartes e fazia um grande número instrumentos óticos para ele; os dois compartilharam um grande interesse em explicar a visão e os instrumentos e as lentes deviam ajudá-los a desenvolver suas teorias. Um dos resultados famosos de Mydorge foi uma medida extremamente exata da latitude de Paris. R.Q.Cobra

    Extractions: Version for printing Claude Hardy was a practising lawyer and took part in the weekly meetings of Roberval Mersenne and others. He was also a friend of Gassendi and Mydorge . Hardy introduced Mydorge to Descartes Hardy, in his capacity as a lawyer, worked for the Parliament in Paris from 1625. A year later he was certainly attached to the court of justice in Paris as a counsellor. In 1630 he published Examen and in 1638 Refutation . These works dealt with the problem of the duplication of the cube and Hardy pointed out a fallacy which had arisen regarding this problem. Hardy took part in many of the mathematical discussions and arguments of the time but his greatest contribution was his knowledge of Arabic and other languages which enabled him to make important Latin translations of Euclid 's Data and other books. Despite the fact that he introduced Mydorge to Descartes , Hardy supported Descartes when the two had a dispute over Fermat 's method of maxima and minima, a forerunner to the calculus.

    Extractions: 1. Introduction The importance of centres in the development and diffusion of Renaissance culture, assumed by Vasari (1550),1 and discussed by Burckhardt (1860),2 became the topic of an important book by Chastel (1965),3 who acknowledged that there were problems with the approach. For while Florence, Lombardy, Rome, Naples, Venice and Padua were of enormous significance, smaller cities such as Lodi and Prato were also important. In a subsequent book on Italy's workshops (1969)4 Chastel gave greater emphasis to these smaller cities surrounding the larger ones, as, for example, Bergamo, Brescia, Como, Vigevano and Pavia in the case of Milan. Since then there has been increasing attention in the relation between centre and periphery. Ginzburg and Castelnuovo,5 in a fundamental study, have challenged the very notion of a centre. A detailed study would need to confront these problems of method, and might draw parallels between criticism of great centres and the fashion to criticize great individuals. Our concern is more modest: to outline the development of the major centres of publication regarding perspective and to trace how these shift with time. Centres in cities were usually due to the presence of a court, university and/or a workshop. They could be centres in at least three different senses: as places of production, as places which attracted painters to meet, or as places of transit. Nor was it just a question of painters. As Settis has shown, humanist counselors played an important part in these developments.
