John Toland (born 1670, died 1722) was an Irish mathematician, philosopher, and writer known for his contributions to various fields, including mathematics and the philosophy of science. He was also associated with the early development of the concept of mathematical analysis. Toland is perhaps best known for his philosophical work rather than strictly mathematical contributions. He was a proponent of empiricism and skepticism and engaged in discussions about the nature of knowledge and the limits of human understanding.
