Abstract
Although the presentation of the spline is routine for many of us, classical textbooks have not paid sufficient tribute to Brook Taylor in explaining such a concept whose roots can be found on his historic work Methodus Incrementorum Directa et Inversa, published in London in 1715. As our modest memorial to such a genius, we discuss the development of polynomial splines on the basis of Taylor's series. The specific steps for the construction of parabolic, cubic, tetra and splines are given here.
