Encouraged by these studies, he also made several inroads in mathematics, paying special attention to differential and integral calculus, considering its logical and philosophical foundations. These studies had begun many years previously, but intensified in 1865/1866, as they were intended to build solid theoretical support for his studies of political economy. %K Mathematics in Marx %K Marx and the Natural Sciences %K Marx and Philosophy %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=111562
