[edit] comments

"natural philosophy" in his day. What should we say here? -- Tarquin

Suggestion "He died at Bâle, where he was professor of natural philosophy, what would currently be a professorate in physics"


If you need a family tree for the Bernoullis, there is one on fr:Famille Bernoulli. Ma'ame Michu 10:05, 12 Oct 2004 (UTC)

I'm doing a biography off of Daniel. so I searching on wikipedia.

[edit] ablest Bernoulli?

"Daniel Bernoulli was by far the ablest of the younger Bernoullis." -- Is this a neutral statement?! --TedPavlic 17:09, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Date of birth

Today Daniel's date of birth was changed from 8 Feb to 29 Jan, and his date of death was changed at well. I checked some of the online sources, and found that the St Andrews website says 8 Feb, Rouse Ball says 9 Feb, and the 1911 EB says 29 Jan. So I'm hoping that somebody with some time looks into this and can tell us which is correct, or whether we should just say that it is not known. -- Jitse Niesen (talk) 20:45, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
