From the reviews:

„Anyone seriously interested in Colin Maclaurin (1698-1746) or in eighteenth-century mathematical physics will welcome this book. … the assiduous reader will be rewarded in many ways, both by working through Tweddle’s introductions, notes, and appendices, and by reading Maclaurin’s own words in Tweddle’s clear and accurate translations. I find the book refreshing … we have the result of years of profound study and deliberation, careful textual analysis, and sound understanding and explanation of the relevant mathematics and physics.“ (Judith V. Grabiner, MathDL, January, 2007)
