Gottfried Leibniz
Gottfried Leibniz was a German philosopher, mathematician, and polymath, recognized as one of the most important figures in the development of modern philosophy and calculus. He co-invented calculus independently of Isaac Newton, and his philosophical ideas included the concept of monads, which posited that the universe is made up of simple substances that reflect the entire universe from their own perspective. Leibniz's work on rationalism, logic, and metaphysics laid crucial groundwork for later philosophical thought.
