Abstract
We present a brief introduction to Poincaré’s ideas and projects. After a global survey of his life and work we give an extensive evaluation of his famous Prize Essay and discuss his concepts of dynamical systems. A section is devoted to Poincaré’s influence on theoretical engineering and one on his many results in mathematical physics.
