The modern infinitesimal calculus is an adaptation of the ancient method of exhaustions, the method of Descartes differs only in the manner of its application from that of A pollonius, the idea of perspective was already formulated by Serenus, and the principle of anharmonic section with the leading properties of transversals are found in the lemmas of Pappus to the lost three books of Porisms of Euclid.
