Keep it Simple, Silly
Among the great academic controversies in history, the rivalry between Sir Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz stands out as one of its most unpleasant.
Both men took credit for inventing calculus, the branch of mathematics that deals with the rates of change between moving bodies. Leibniz published his findings in 1684, 3 years before Newton published his in 1687. Newton, however, actually addressed the subject 13 years before Leibniz, in a treatise from 1671 that remained unpublished until 1736. Nevertheless, Newton's work originally appeared in Volume 1 of his, "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy" from 1687. To refute the work of French mathematician Rene Descartes. he used geometry to express his research rather than equations that would have been easier to recognize. By taking a more complicated approach, Newton denied himself the recognition he truly deserved for his discovery!
