This book primarily serves as a historical research monograph on
the biographical sketch and career of Leonhard Euler and his major
contributions to numerous areas in the mathematical and physical
sciences. It contains fourteen chapters describing Euler's works on
number theory, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, differential and
integral calculus, analysis, infinite series and infinite products,
ordinary and elliptic integrals and special functions, ordinary and
partial differential equations, calculus of variations, graph
theory and topology, mechanics and ballistic research, elasticity
and fluid mechanics, physics and astronomy, probability and
statistics.The book is written to provide a definitive impression
of Euler's personal and professional life as well as of the range,
power, and depth of his unique contributions. This tricentennial
tribute commemorates Euler the great man and Euler the universal
mathematician of all time. Based on the author's historically
motivated method of teaching, special attention is given to
demonstrate that Euler's work had served as the basis of research
and developments of mathematical and physical sciences for the last
300 years. An attempt is also made to examine his research and its
relation to current mathematics and science. Based on a series of
Euler's extraordinary contributions, the historical development of
many different subjects of mathematical sciences is traced with a
linking commentary so that it puts the reader at the forefront of
current research.Erratum
