For many reasons, the book changed the face of mathematics forever. Incidently he did not discover this series but had used it as an example in the Liber Abaci. Prior to Fibonacci, mathematicians didn't have numbers like we do. The book advocated numeration with the digits 0–9 and place value. It goes back to the mathematician Leonardo Fibonacci and chapter 12 of his book "Liber Abaci" written in 1202. He published Liber Abaci or Book of Calculation in 1202. In the Liber Abaci (1202), Fibonacci introduces the so-called modus Indorum (method of the Indians), today known as Arabic numerals. 1202 was the year Fibonacci published Liber abaci, a book that revolutionized everything from economics and commerce to education and science. The Fibonacci sequence is named after Leonardo of Pisa, who was known as Fibonacci. Here's a working paper on the topic: Fibonacci and the Financial Revolution William N. Wikipedia explains that in 1202, mathematician Leonardo of Pisa, known as Fibonacci, published Liber Abaci which laid out the sequence. In the text of the Liber Abaci, Fibonacci exposes the advantages of Arabia digits and the hallmark for no by applying them about the imaginable world of book-keeping, weights and evaluates, and commerce.
