Lagrange and Mozart as critics of Descartes
Grattan-Guinness, I. (Middlesex University at Enfield)

Date:	1999
Abstract:	This article traces three lines of positive and negative influence which emanated from Descartes's Discours sur la méthode (1637), orat least were closely linked to it. Three areas of concern are involved: the relationship between geometry and algebra, celestial mechanics, and physiological psychology. The two critics of the title were contemporaries: reasons for their surprising conjunction will emerge at the end.
