Hi, it seems no one has yet to post, is there anyone who even knows if this book has been translated, I would love to know at least that even if not given information on where to find it. I find it quite hard to believe that the first book in Europe on differential calculus wouldn't have been translated into several other languages, maybe it hasn't but just can't believe it. anyways thanks to all who looked at this thread :-)
