This famous exhortation, which Libri 1 ascribes to Laplace, expresses Euler's influence on eighteenthcentury mathematics very well. During his long and profitable activity Euler obtained an astonishing number of results, which were crucial in the development of mathematics and fill over 70 volumes of his Opera omnia 2 : they concern all parts of eighteenth-century mathematics-both pure and applied-, ranging from number theory, infinite series, the theory of equations, combinatorics and probability, the differential and integral calculus, elliptic integrals, the calculus of variations, musical harmony, mechanics, theory of machines, optics, astronomy, naval science, and much else besides. Thus, today, the name of Euler can found in the history of almost all the branches of mathematics, even in the history of those branches that did not yet exist in the eighteenth century but boast of Euler as an ancestor, such as graph theory. In this paper, however, my intention is not to deal with one or more of the many Eulerian results but to call attention on what I term as Euler's analytical program, namely Euler's attempts of transforming analysis into an autonomous discipline and reorganizing the whole of mathematics around analysis. The main aspects of this program can be summarized as follows:

The manuscript discovered by the Nahatas is the only known manuscript of the text, but, unfortunately, its whereabouts are no longer known. SaKHYa therefore only had the Nahatas' edition available when producing their book, and, as a result, what we have is a revised version of the Nahatas' edition. The Nahatas' text has been emended, when deemed necessary for mathematical or other reasons, but the original readings have been preserved in footnotes. Furthermore, words have been separated independently of phonetic changes, which makes it easier to find a word in the text. The English translation presented in Part Three is literal and precise. The mathematical commentary in Part Four elaborates on the translation, contextualizing and explaining it. Finally, the appendices provide a concordance between the Ga _ nitasārakaumud ı and other works, a glossary-index to the text, and other useful tools. Overall, the volume is a wonderful contribution to the field of the history of mathematics in India. The text is carefully edited, the translation precise, and the mathematical commentary solid and informative. Moreover, the introduction puts the material in the appropriate historical context. As a result, the volume will be of value both to the specialist, who will want to consult the original text, as well as to a more casual reader, looking to learn more about mathematics in India in the 14th century. It is hoped that SaKHYa will continue their good work on Indian mathematics and that their collaboration will produce more volumes like the present one.

In particular, I tackle the question of the relationship between the method of first and ultimate ratios and the modern theory of limits; then, I show that in Newton's mathematics, the figure continued to play one of the fundamental functions of the figure in Greek geometry: a part of the reasoning was unloaded on to it.
