Excerpt from A History of the Mathematical Theories of Attraction and the Figure of the Earth From, Vol. 2 of 2: The Time of Newton to That of Laplace The investigations of Laplace on Attractions and the Figure of the Earth fall naturally into five divisions. The first division consists of three memoirs, which treat the subjects without the use of what we now call the Potential Function, or of that branch of analysis which we now call Laplace's Functions. The second division consists of a separate volume which uses the Potential Function. The third division consists of various memoirs which use both the Potential Function and Laplace's Functions. The fourth division is formed by the republication of the preceding researches in the first and second volumes of the Mecanique Celeste. The fifth division consists of researches subsequent to the publication of the second volume of the Mecanique Celeste; they are reproduced in the fifth volume of the Mecanique Celeste. We shall consider in the present Chapter Laplace's first three memoirs. We begin with the seventh volume of the Memoires de Mathematique...par divers Savans... 1773: the date of publication is 1776. This volume contains two memoirs by Laplace, which among other subjects treat largely of Probability: see pages 473...475 of my History...of Probability. The part of the volume with which we are now concerned is entitled Sur la figure de la Terre; it occupies pages 524...534. It is not stated when these investigations were sent to the Academy; but from the title of the volume in which they appear we see that Laplace was not a member of the Academy when they were sent.
