In the frontispiece for Isaac Newton ’s Method of Fluxions (1736), the ancient philosophers contemplate the principles of motion while the contemporary, seventeenth century gentlemen hunters utilize them in the quest for a moving target. The situation depicted is similar to modern day trap-shooting.

Método de Fluxions (Latin: De Methodis Serierum et Fluxionum) es un tratado matemático por Sir Isaac Newton que sirvió como la primera formulación escrita de cálculo moderno. El libro se completó en 1671 y se publicó en 1736. Fluxion es el término de Newton para un derivado.
Su método permite determinar los máximos y mínimos de relaciones, las tangentes a diferentes curvas, y su radio de curvatura, puntos de inflexión y cambio de concavidad, así como el área y longitud . Newton también explica cómo encontrar de forma aproximada las raíces de una ecuación.

fluxion, in mathematics, the original term for derivative (q.v.), introduced by Isaac Newton in 1665. Newton referred to a varying (flowing) quantity as a fluent and to its instantaneous rate of change as a fluxion.
This chapter explores the analytical method of fluxions, as stated in De Methodis. Newton’s method of fluxions can be divided into two parts: The direct and the inverse. Newton considered the techniques of the direct method to be perfected, as presented in his treatise De Methodis.
