Abstract
This paper surveys the history of complex numbers from their initial discovery to their complete acceptance and their use in contemporary physics and mathematics. The initial rejection of these new numbers by figures as important as Leibniz and Cauchy is what strikes us most and makes us reflect on how distrust, by even competent people, sometimes delays the adoption of important and valuable content.
