The second volume of Dr Whiteside's annotated edition of all the known mathematical papers of Isaac Newton covers the period 1667–70. It is divided into three parts: Part 1 contains the first drafts of an attempted classification of cubics, together with more general studies on the properties of higher algebraic curves and researches into the 'organic' construction of curves. Part 2 comprises papers on miscellaneous researches in calculus, including the important De Analysi which introduced Newton to John Collins and others outside Cambridge; Newton's original text is here accompanied by Leibniz's excerpts and review, and by Newton's counter review. Part 3 contains Mercator's Latin translation of Kinckhuysen's introduction to algebra, with Newton's corrections and 'observations' upon it, and an account of researches into algebraic equations and their geometrical construction.
Part I. Researches in Pure and Analytical Geometry 1667–1668: 1. Analysis of the Properties of Cubic Curves and their Classification by Species; 2. Researches into the General Properties of Curves; 3. Researches in the Organic Construction of Curves; Part II. Researches in Calculus: 1. Curve Problems and Further Logarithmic Computations; 2. Miscellaneous Researches; 3. The 'De Analysi Per Æquationes Infinitas'; Part III. Researches in Algebra and the Construction of Equations: 1.Kinckhuysen's Algebra and Newton's 'Observationes'; 2.Researches in the Geometrical Construction of Equations; Index of Names
