For other uses, see Change (disambiguation)''Change, the quality of impermanence and flux, has had a chequered history as a concept. In ancient Greek languageGreek philosophy, while Heraclitus saw change as ever-present and all-encompassing, Parmenides virtually denied its existence.Publius Ovidius NasoOvid produced a classic thematic handling of change as metamorphosis in his ''Metamorphoses (poem)Metamorphoses''.Ptolemaic systemPtolemaic astronomy envisioned a largely static universe, with erratic change confined to less worthy spheres.Medieval thought fostered great respect for appeal to authority authority and revelation, severely cramping any encouragement of change.Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz harnessed mathematics mathematical concepts into calculus to provide mathematical models of change. This constituted a major step forward in understanding flux and variation.With the rise of Industrial revolutionindustrialisation and capitalism, the importance attached to innovation grew, and social and political upheavals and pressures often forced change by violent revolution (as in North America in the late 18th century and in later imitators). By the late 20th century much business and New Age thought focussed enthusiastically on transformation in management, in function and in mental attitudes, while ignoring or deploring changes in society or in geopolitics. And Madison Avenue receives payment to repeat the litany of the fad for change: ''In the fast-changing world of today, you need ... product X''.Cultural attitudes to change itself may fall into one of at least two Categorycategories:Change is random, lacking determinism or teleology.Change is cyclical, and one expects circumstances to recur.
